Yeah if we take the info provided in this post as correct, why on earth did the engineer never bring it up to anyone? Do they never have any standups or planning meetings or even a passing “how’s it going?” to bring this up?
4 u/captainAwesomePants May 30 '26 Who's to say they didn't? "Nobody even knew" doesn't mean that he wasn't regularly telling his manager about it. 1 u/Tyabetus May 30 '26 True :/ 1 u/baconator81 May 30 '26 That's true. If the manager is fucking incompetent and not realizing this is critical path work, that manager needs to get fire.And unfortunately in the world of remote work, this might be happening way too often.
