I thought it relevant to make an agile methods comment if it will drive the point to digg-reading techies and managers that they'd be happier in an agile team if this joke reminds them of someone. In his fury (4 name-callings in two paragraphs - had your coffee yet?), Pete seems to be confusing time spent on digg with results. That's what a manager who doesn't know how tech works would do. I never care what's on the screen of a techie as long as he's producing results. Talk about a lack of sense of humor ;-) Yes, I realize it’s meant as a joke, but I’m sure your comedic material comes from somewhere.

Still, you posted at a time that normal techies have been hard at work for at least three quarters of an hour so there may be a glimmer of hope for you, shirker.

How about getting a sense of humor? The original article was supposed to be FUNNY, get it? Hmmm… How about getting a sense of humor? The original article was supposed to be FUNNY, get it?
