![]() I know it is 1 week too late but i dont care. (and he apparently communicates just fine, according to my micromanager.)īut "it's just fixing a report it'll be easy!" I've yet to get a useful answer out of him. If he does, he uses fewer words than my bird knows, then stops responding. The factory for the new type also only creates one variant - and does so incorrectly.Īnd to top it all off: the guy who wrote the feature barely ever responds. ![]() The new type has practically zero test coverage. Following the factories is a major chore, let alone fixing or extending them. The object factories (for specs) are a mess, and often create objects indirectly, or in backwards order with odd post-create overwriting to make things work. The specs for the report I'm fixing don't even check the data on the report it just checks for one bit of data on each row it creates - a name - which is also the same on each row. The specs for the feature are outdated and cover only 4 of 19+ cases. If one thing is wrong, the feature just doesn't show up (and ofc won't tell you why). Testing steps for QA are missing several steps, including setup, so actually using the feature is bloody challenging. Shared behavior, terrible variable/method naming, misleading module naming, dynamic polymorphic spaghetti, whitespace errors, no consistency, confusing even if you understand what the code is doing. Wrapped the task but it is 3:30 in morning and i jumped to bed for sleep. Started working on projects i did not complete in the office. I promised him to finish the work after reaching home. Boss asked twice about the project status and i am unable to think a single line of code. Before reaching office stopped at fast food joints. No time for newspaper or tv.įeeling lazy and tired already. ![]() Reached office 5 minute before 10, safe and sound.Ĭame back at 7 by evening. Reading news papers or watching tv and doing breakfast.Īt 9: 30 went for office. Went for daily routine, like bathing and all. Went for morning walk or do yoga or some sort of stuff.Ĭame back at 7. Today, seven years after his words I'm a developer living in foreign country with what I could say somewhat a solid experience and understanding of how both software and web are build, while that same professor still recites to his pupils difference between assembly and object code, while praying nobody asks him where and how these are used. Two years later I was correcting this same professor with his claims on a whiteboard in front of a whole class. Couple weeks later I've bought myself a first book in programming and started learning C++ late at night since I understood that I won't learn anything about programming in that school. Pretty sure I was the only one trying to listen to him and learn something from his recitals.Īll of a sudden he notices the atmosphere in the classroom, slams the book shut, gives out couple of F-s to the loudest students and yells out loud "NONE OF YOU IN THIS ROOM WILL EVER ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE, BARE ALONE IN PROGRAMMING"Īt first I felt like shit, but soon after that I started thinking "who the hell are you to tell me what I could or will accomplish in my life". So it was just one these days, everybody got back from vacation, it's hot outside, the guy is just reading sentences from his book, half of students talk with each other and other half doesn't give a fuck about him or his class. He was more reading stuff from the book than he was trying to explain them to students and give some real world examples. On first sight it appeared that the professor which taught the class knew something, he looked like a genuine geek with those dorky glasses, briefcase and pants like Steve Urkel, but after couple of his lessons you could see he had no real dev experience and just basic understanding of programming in theory. I was really looking forward to it cause I always wanted to learn programming. My second year of high-school, we started having class in computer science.
