The point about non-developer managers is especially telling for me. While I've been blessed to always be a coder among coders (or coder-like people), I've rarely had managers (let alone directors!) who had a developer background.

For example, my previous position had developer-type managers, but the directors were non-developers. So, they had no compunctions in moving up our due dates without conferring with us. Then, they got mad when we didn't deliver on their schedules after they wouldn't authorize overtime. Big surprise, huh?

Education is important. I'd even say it's the most important thing, except that willingness to change is more important in a manager.

Don't go borrowing trouble. For programmers, this means Worry only about what you need to implement.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
