My boss gave me a project without any meaningful requirements and asked:
boss: can you finish this in 9 months?
me: well I really can't give you any estimate.
boss: well just do it.
8 months later I summarize all weekly requirements that the client has given and estimated I should be able to finish the project with just 3 months, if only the requirements are ready and not changing from time to time. What a f***ing waste of my time? Why the f*** people do this? And after all this my boss said:
boss: I think we should be able to finish this project faster.
YOU THINK!

    You need to hold on to your expert opinion more. Tell your boss why something can or cannot be done in some amount of time. Communicate status on regular basis. Don't just agree with everything they say only because they are the boss.

    @CodeNoir well it's true. But my boss probably already understand that this project and the client are suck but he just doesn't care, and many other team also has same exp with this guy. I probably just gonna quit next month. wish me luck.
