Programmer Humor

This is one of those cases where if I'm saying an hour I mean and hour and will proactively reach out as soon as I realize that hour is wrong.

I get this is meant as a joke about how difficult is it to estimate things, but this isn't on anyone but me and making sure I am communicating my progress. Anyone who has the title of senior developer and disagrees is senior in name only.

And I post this as there is literally a production issue being discussed because procrastination is always part of my estimates. The troubleshooting revealed it's not my bug, it's on that other team's so I get to wait for them to fix their data and confirm my teams stuff works once the data is correct or I get to fix it live; my favorite but exceedingly rare.

The adrenaline of that is awesome and I question the career choice of anyone who dreads this stuff.
