Learning to sit back, relax, and enjoy the popcorn
It was decided that I would not change Project: Cleese [1] and that the fake
data [2] would just have to be generated faster, despite it not technically
being needed (I mean, it's fake data after all).
We are also stalled on an expansion of a current feature of Project: Lumbergh
[3]. The team lead has serious qualms about how it's supposed to interact
with other features, even though it's not supposed to interact with other
features as it's mutually exclusive with the other features. Unfortunately,
there are some accounts with this and other mutually exclusive features, in
production, and to me, it's clear it's an issue with provisioning of the
accounts. But it's not clear to my team leader, nor may manager that this is
the case.
And how many accounts are affected? Less than 300 out of 100,000,000. Or in
other words, 1 out of 330,000 accounts (0.0003%).
The feature in question currently sends limited information about a call, and
of all the “features” we have, this is the most limited in nature. The
expansion will add information to bring it closer to par with the other,
mutually exclusive features. I personally don't see an issue here, but it's
above my pay grade. And now we're in a second round of gathering requirements
on this.
I just have to learn to love the process über alles.
