13 Symptoms of Unhappiness

I found this little gem in a presentation of Sam Guckenheimer. He explains how each problem can be solved with VSTS. Also from this presentation:

"Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."
Tolstoy, Anna Karenina


13 Symptoms of Unhappiness


  • It's the code, stupid!

  • Actually it's the requirements!

  • No, the problem is that you neglected the architecture!

  • Architecture, schmarchitecture. I just want a working build.

  • What good is that the way we mix up versions?!

  • Not code versions, but the environments, don't you get it?

  • Ever heard of security?!

  • Yeah, but you ignored performance, duh!

  • So what if it worked in the lab -- it's still unmanageable!

  • Oh, and did we mention testing?

  • Since you're not measuring it, you can't manage it anyway!

  • With a process like that, what do you expect?

  • It's our culture - you'll never change that.
