This is brilliant example of why integration testing is so much better than unit testing https://twitter.com/withzombies/...

Best joke played on me, I was told to make our webapp work in IE6 and be pretty!

While you're down there...

Staging? Straight to production!

Sure just do this...

How long to implement?

Is it the sarcasm that is built into devs that makes them so good at puns?

A pure r&d project! Get to try out all the cool new things. Yes I know it will probably be out of date by the end of my first day! One can only dream! 😉

If you don't know, ask! We seniors are there to help!

Not a rant per se, but starting to feel like a gypsy in work. If there is a new project/current project that has a looming deadline, I appear to be the one tasked with making it happen! I only started in the new company, then a month into it was moved, then about another month into the new project, I now have to create a brand new project and have it done in two days

Have started writing Angular after a 3 year gap, I'm liking it better second time round 😃

My new work set up ☺️

test@test.com must have a huge amount of spam! From me alone anyway

Leaving my current job, after being there for 10 years straight after uni, in 2 weeks! I have now been taken out of development and have to somehow write confluence docs of all my knowledge... Fml

When somebody says "you work in ICT" 😡

When your "product owner" just doesn't listen...

Skype conversation:

PO: What format will the dates need to be in for the csv file upload?
Me: Just tell them YYYY-MM-DD
PO: ok

Two weeks later...

PO: there is a bug in the csv file upload! The dates aren't being picked up
Me: ok will have a look, send me through an example date the are using
PO: ok, example date 12/03/1990

FFS! 😡

Boss actually wants QA to keep track of devs that "cause" bugs and to keep a tally. True story!
