My biggest flaw when working in IT: I will refuse to prioritize time- consuming work with minimal added value (cf premature optimization, 0.001% edge cases) when I have a backlog of work that will add much more, obvious value and I will not budge to manager or architect power-plays and tendencies to micromanage my responsibilities, even if it may eventually end up getting me in trouble.

    God I'm happy that I work in a place where they actually respect and trust your backlog priorities.. Previous job was exactly the opposite and it makes so much of a difference in enjoying your work!

    Well, why not.. You're still getting paid for the hour.

    You can bite them by inflating the estimate and slacking for a few hours/day on their dime
