No More Daily Standups

This meme is the Git workflow version of the "Avengers Assemble" moment! It's showcasing the holy quartet of Git best practices that, when combined, create repository nirvana: First panel: Creating a branch for every feature - the organized developer who keeps things tidy and isolated. So civilized! Second panel: One commit does one thing - the minimalist who refuses to bundle 47 unrelated changes into a single "fixed stuff" commit. Revolutionary concept! Third panel: Rebasing before merge - the sophisticated developer who keeps the commit history cleaner than their apartment before their crush visits. Fourth panel: Force pushing... wait, WHAT? That's the chaotic evil teammate who rewrites history with the subtlety of a sledgehammer. But hey, at least they're doing it to their own feature branch (hopefully). Together they form Captain Clean Git - defender of readable commit histories and savior of code reviews everywhere!

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of developers who sprinkle their code with TODOs like confetti at a parade! 💅 We're basically creating our own little graveyard of good intentions right there in the source code! Those TODOs are just digital tombstones marking the burial sites of features we'll "totally get to someday" but will actually rot there until the heat death of the universe. It's like leaving Post-it notes on your fridge about going to the gym – we all know that's NEVER happening, honey! The code equivalent of "I'll call you sometime" after a bad first date!

Oh sweetie, you think I have some magical coping strategy for those production outages and deadline nightmares? THAT'S MY SECRET - the crushing weight of impending doom is my constant companion! While you're over there having your little panic attack about that one bug, I've transcended to a state of perpetual existential dread where four simultaneous production fires feel like a normal Tuesday morning. The chaos isn't a phase, darling - it's a lifestyle choice! 💅

Being the "debugging wizard" on your team is a curse disguised as a compliment. Sure, you're respected for your skills, but now you're drowning in everyone's nightmare tickets while they work on the shiny new features. Your reward for competence? More pain. The ultimate programming career trap—excel at something difficult and that's all you'll ever do again.

First day on the job and already planning to rewrite millions of lines of code? Classic junior developer syndrome. Nothing says "I'm going to revolutionize this place" quite like deciding the entire codebase is garbage before you've even found where the bathroom is. The sheer audacity of looking at legacy code and thinking "Yeah, I can fix this by tomorrow" is peak developer hubris. Spoiler alert: six months later, you'll be defending that same "horrible" code to the next new hire.

Ah yes, Brooks' Law in its purest form. The ultimate middle finger to every project manager who thinks throwing more bodies at a late project will somehow speed things up. Been in this industry 15 years and watched countless PMs discover this truth the hard way. For the uninitiated: Fred Brooks wrote "The Mythical Man-Month" in 1975 after watching IBM's OS/360 project implode spectacularly. His insight? Adding people to a late software project makes it later. Why? Because now your original devs are spending all their time onboarding the new folks instead of, you know, actually coding. Next time your boss suggests "let's just add three more developers" to fix that deadline you're about to miss, just silently email them this quote. Then update your resume, because they probably won't get it.
