<p>You are tired of running the same thing over and over again. You kinda |
|
remember that something weird may happen, but because you're tired, you tell |
|
everyone that "It's finished". Don't.</p> |
|
<span id="continue-reading"></span> |
|
<p>I must admit that I've done this. Yes, there is that corner case that I didn't |
|
test. Yes, there is that piece of code that, although it works, it's weird. |
|
Yes, I left a technical debt behind. But we get tired of looking at the same |
|
thing over and over. And we get pushed by higher ups to deliver stuff. And |
|
that's when we say "It's done", when it's not.</p> |
|
<p>Although we just dodged one, we end up leaving our colleagues -- people that |
|
really depend on our work -- down. They expect to connect to whatever we are |
|
doing to keep going. The expect to see the results of their work crystallized |
|
by ours. And they can't. 'Cause we said "It's done" when it wasn't.</p> |
|
<p>And you can be sure, as soon as that happens, they will be the first to point, |
|
in minutes, that it is not done.</p> |
|
<p>On the other hand, if you say "Almost, but there is this thing that bothers me |
|
and I think it may give us a headache in the future", they will understand. So |
|
be clear and transparent about your work.</p> |
