Office politics

   We have well defined roles. We develop programs. Testing team finds bugs in them. And we correct it. What if we exceed our roles? If we find bugs and correct them, should we be rewarded or punished.    The former rarely happens. Who asked you to find the bugs? You are trying to correct one bug and generate other bugs. That is the comment I got. Well I have quite a thick skin. Did not feel sad. But felt angry.     One more thing which happens too frequently is we scratch our head and try to utilize what little gray cells we have and design the algorithms, find suitable data structures, decide which functions to write etc. And finally the programs gives the expected output. And what feedback do we get? This back-ground color is not good. Why don't you make this smaller/larger....Comments about UI (ie user interface)     Well but that is what matters right. The package is as important as the content inside?
You caught me blogging in the office time when one of GRRRReat colleague is trying to explain how to use GIMP. I have justification. All the other people in my office, take their coffee cups and go out and come back after half an hour. They come back from lunch at 3. Again afternoon coffee for half an hour. I don't do these things. Not because I am very consen.. I do not remember that word properly. Not that I am very very good employee. But because everyone in my office hate me. Why? Because every one in this universe hate me.    Good progress. Isn't it? From job less house wife to most hated techiee.
