I can’t do that.

Truth: I could probably do it, and it wouldn’t take me long, but I don’t know how right now, so I don’t want to get involved if I can.

I can finish this in three days at most.

Fact: Two weeks

This is a prototype and will not be used in the product

Fact: This code will be used entirely in the final project, unless the problem is so severe that we have to rewrite it verbatim (rewriting won’t take much time, but it’s always worth it).

Hey, whatever you want!

Truth: I hate that you want this annoying thing for this useless function.

We expect this to come out in q2.

Fact: Q4

No one will notice this bug

Fact: I hope no users see…

Ok, I just need to reset the cache, please try again, it should work now.

Truth: I don’t know what’s going on and I haven’t made any changes, I just hope that if I ignore it, the problem will go away

If the girlfriend doesn’t have a technical background —

Girl friend: honey, what are you doing? Programmer: Ah… Girlfriend: Gee, you must be so busy. Take your time. I’ll call you tomorrow.

Fact: Don’t bother me, honey. I’m playing games/watching TV series.

If the manager doesn’t have a technical background —

Manager: How long will it take to develop this? Programmer (after carefully reading) : a week, your request is very complicated.

Fact: It can be done in an hour, but I don’t want to.

Manager (to his client) : We have a lot of talented developers who will get the job done on time.

Manager (to his developer) : I have complete trust in you to finish on time. (He means, please don’t screw it up again!)

Developer: Well, of course! Under your supervision, we can definitely develop it on time.

Fact: He hasn’t figured out how to start development.

Programmer: I can’t reproduce the problem. This works fine on my machine, don’t worry about this bug.

Tester: I don’t care how it works on your machine. We’re not giving your machine to the customer.

Fact: He never tried to recreate the problem

Tester: This test case does not match your code.

And you’ll hear a thrilling answer

I didn’t develop this thing! How is that possible? Did you reboot it? One last word — this is not a valid test case.

Fact: When did I write this sh! T ~ WTF, I missed this! After you restart, I should be able to come up with some good excuses ~ to run this code first and see what happens in the production server ~

Customer: Can you make the software… ?

Programmer: No

Fact: Of course we can do it, but: It will take a long time. You can’t afford it. If it does, it won’t be able to sell to anyone else because it’s a terrible idea. By the time we’re done, you won’t want this feature.
