Cathy;

Rofl!

I worked at one company that had a “drop dead date”, that is to ship regardless of the state of the software. No SQA allowed – and the developers were told, “Do not test your code”! I tested my code and got chewed out!

Well the product shipped on a Friday and during the next two weeks 500 irate customers were up in arms. It is all about “management decisions”! Now why did they go out of business?
