On: Doing too much work on one's own before looping in...

[Trasmatta]

I feel this deeply. I had an extremely similar situation at my last job. My current job is quite a bit better at least, but I still deal with it here.

I guess there's a reason the phrase "code monkey" exists. Jonathan Coulton said it pretty well:

Code Monkey have boring meeting

With boring manager Rob

Rob say Code Monkey very diligent

But his output stink

His code not “functional” or “elegant”

What do Code Monkey think?

Code Monkey think maybe manager want to write god damned login page himself
