    t.f.w. “npm install somePackage” adds hundreds of names to your supplier list, some of whom aren’t even adults let alone companies, and the policy says that each new supplier needs to go through a thorough vetting process.

    TFW you want to do things good, slow and expensive, but management makes you do them fast, cheap and crap.

    For your entire career.

    Please kill me

          Don’t forget get questioned by your manager/scrum lead as to why its taking so long to get out.

          Well, I’ve had the PR ready for 3 days and the team asked me to make changes today

      Change management! :-)

      Or, if possible, change employer.

      (And I know we’re in meme-land, but I always see it as a developer’s task to inform of the trade-off between fast and good)

        Every other skilled trade just says “Fast, Right, or Cheap: pick two.”

        It’s not my fault if they always pick fast and cheap
