    I wish it was like this. But instead were getting tickets with barely a title. Or there’s a report that the application misbehaves ones or twice per month with no reproduction steps, fix it. Or the delivery schedule is set, but there are no feature roadmap or milestones to track what is yet to be done and if we are on track. Or the project manager has got their position because they sucked at coding and the company couldn’t figure out what else to do with them and you have to keep explaining basic technical decisions over and over to them. And everything will come back haunting you as long as you are in the company. One ticket keeps being resurrected for you because client keeps changing their mind on how it should work or keeps finding more esoteric edge cases. Or you’re roped in to some legacy project over and over again, because you managed to do a minor fix for it two years ago and you’re the only one left who has ever touched it.
