    but the biggest hurdle for IT is to get the business moving and make them understand what the roadblock is in a particulr requirement! Which probably explains why some IT guys become managers, to bridge the gap between non-IT managers and IT, which leads to them shouting "quality" (and take things in a completely different direction ) SDLC process is pretty immature alright
    Let me make this clear I agree with Doodab & Tranceporter
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

      Of course! We spend most of our working hours getting what we can out of a machine that only deals in 0s and 1s.

        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ)
          Your score was 14 out of a possible 50.

          Edit
          Also tried MB/Jung test

          And I am an ESTJ.

          Which is exactly what I thought when I read the thread.

          Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.

                Your score was 30 out of a possible 50.

                Scores in the 26 - 32 range indicate some Autistic traits (Aspergers Syndrome).
