I'm not sure if this fits into the "Its funny because we're all happy it isn't us (this time)" category, or the "Its funny because we all know its true" category (either way, I give it a ++). I suppose we've all been in that position at one time or another. Personally, I think it's just a symptom of pointy-haired boss syndrome.
You started out your article by saying:
What follows is yet another lesson learned about projects in the corporate world, be they programming, or therwise.
I know I've already drawn my own conclusions, but I'm just curious what the actual "Lessons learned" were from your perspective?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
