| I left the IT industry just over a year ago and have some observations. Hopefully they will bring a smile and some encouragement to the stressed. - Devs can be dicks to each other - Managers can be dicks to devs and vice versa - Devs need to get outside more, not just when travelling to work - Devs should look up and not play games at lunchtime - Devs should not eat their lunch at their desk - Devs should enjoy good coffee but not be weird about it - Devs should mix with others in the company, even sales and admin - Devs should leave their work at work - Devs should go outside to places where they can find a partner - Devs should say hello to people when they arrive in work - Devs should say goodbye to people when they leave work - Devs should either walk, run, climb, garden, chop wood, sail, fish, build and/or go out for dinner at the weekend. |
