in reply to Is guessing a good strategy for surviving in the IT business?

What does this poll even mean? What does it mean by "surviving"? And why is IT any different than any other "business"?

Enquiring minds want to know.

    What does this poll even mean?"

    You may regard it as a desparate joke about a serious thing. This is a common human behaviour.

    What does it mean by "surviving"?

    It means not to get fired in the worst case.

    "And why is IT any different than any other "business"?

    I didn't say that. Feel free to interchange IT with any other "business" of your choice.

    Please see also joke, irony and sarcasm.

    I hope this helps.

    Best regards, Karl
