Manager: We lost our best engineer today.
CEO: The one leading payments?
Manager: Yes.
CEO: Did another company offer more money?
Manager: No.
CEO: Then why leave?
Manager: He said he was tired of fixing the same production issues every week.
CEO: That’s part of the job.
Manager: He didn’t mind fixing issues. He minded that nobody wanted to fix the root cause.
CEO: We prioritized speed.
Manager: He wanted quality.
CEO: So he left over that?
Manager: He left because he felt like a firefighter, not an engineer.
Good engineers don’t just want to solve problems.
They want to eliminate them.
@ridgewallet A touch of thread locker on the screws would be huge. One day i looked at my Ridge wallet because the cover was coming off and all but a few screws were gone. I'll still buy another, but that'll be the first thing i do to it.
@DavidP_Johnson4@BenVerlander People grieve differently. Many choose to step back and take time to process their loss. Others choose to keep going, and dedicate their work to their loved ones. Gotta respect both.
