The sloppiness and bad habits of of modern management theory only proliferate the headaches. I wish doing it right the first time was a modern mantra. Maybe it is . . . in spoken form, but not in practice. Regardless of the industry a software package supports, if it is software in demand, it is considered productive . . . Sadly, too many think coders are infallible magicians . . . that any issues they run into are just the nature of the beast.
