when we have a major deadline to meet, you are no longer allowed to do the following:
1) Give me a large assignment on Thursday, and then change your mind on Friday
2) Give me a different large assignment on Friday, and then change your mind on Monday
3) Declare that I must exhaustively test the feature you've assigned to me, and then tell me I'm being too detailed when you review the test case I wrote for the feature
4) Tell me to carefully plan my test files so as to minimize the number of files needed to verify all the steps in my test case, and then tell me I'm spending too much time planning my test files
5) Have three 'five minute meetings' that actually last an hour apiece every day
6) Insist that we need to meet every day to plan our strategy -- I can plan my strategy myself, and I only need to do it once
7) Refuse to allow me to develop my own strategy to complete my assignment because your way works for you -- My strategy is better for me
8) Assume that I am too incompetant to achieve my goals without hand-holding -- Please see 4,5,6, and 7
9) Tell me to create test files according to my plan, and then insist that I use other people's test files -- those files are
a) Out of date because the feature and default software settings have changed10) Micromanage every last little detail of my assignment
b) Not organized or designed to cover all the steps in my test case efficiently
you are slowing me down. please stop.
