It's very difficult to have a conversation when you're making so many projections about a business you likely know very little about. Most of the employees in the industry I work in are artist, not SWEs, and they're working on creative problems with often loosely defined briefs that change every day, and require teams of people to work closely together for many months to achieve. They're also using complex and often poorly documented software that may have been built to solve a specific problem they're attempting to solve.

It's very difficult indeed to argue, when you're giving very little information to back up your assertions.

If you're not given clear briefs, and you accept the work, then it's clear to me that as an industry you've allowed this to go on too long ;)

Let's face it, you're unable to be shifted from your viewpoint. So the utility of this discussion is approaching zero.

I hope your situation improves. Especially with the cranky software! I'm very curious what the software does as I'm always looking for a niche product to build!
