IT Turf Wars: the Most Common Feuds In Tech
snydeq writes "InfoWorld's Dan Tynan reports on the most common feuds in tech: turf wars in the IT department. 'IT pros do battle every day — with cyber attackers, stubborn hardware, buggy software, clueless users, and the endless demands of other departments within their organization. But few can compare to the conflicts raging within IT itself.' Dev vs. ops, staff vs. management — taking flak from fellow IT pros has become all too common in today's highly territorial IT organizations."
It seems like any time I try to write software correctly there is inevitably some retard who gets in my way.
Sometimes it's a senior (in years only) developer who created a "standard" before I got there. Other times it's a shitty outsourcing company in India that decided they would rather write a buggy version of asp.net (using asp.net no less) than let .net developers do things correctly.
When these lousy yet powerful developers get involved (and they always find a way), projects slow down and become buggier. At some point my manager asks why the projects take so long, and the senior developers attack is complete.
Where can I escape retarded senior developers???
