IT devs are the worst and most lazy people in an organization.

Never had to make a deadline or earn a damn dollar in their lives yet they think they know everything.

But muh sprint, muh agile, muh waterfall, mud tech debt...

Just get **** done and stop making excuses.

So many people don't realize that that feature they hate in their software is the way it is because someone made a decision 5 or 10 years ago that it would take millions of dollars to rewrite for minimal ROI.
