Status updates Memes

Turns out the bar for project management is so low you could trip over it while looking for your missing semicolon. Just mindlessly repeat "How's the project going?" every few days and congratulations—you've mastered 90% of the job description. The other 10% is creating Gantt charts nobody will ever look at and scheduling meetings that could've been Slack messages. Meanwhile, developers are over here solving actual problems while the parrot—I mean PM—gets all the credit for "driving the initiative forward." But hey, at least the parrot looks good in that graduation cap.

The infamous Suez Canal blockage meets software development! Programmers are the aircraft carrier trying to make actual progress, while project managers are the Ever Given ship blocking the entire canal with bureaucracy. Nothing kills productivity quite like the unholy trinity of timeline reviews, Jira updates, and the dreaded "let's have another status meeting." Meanwhile, actual code sits unwritten, bugs remain unfixed, and deadlines drift further into fantasy land. The greatest maritime disaster of 2021 perfectly symbolizes what happens when management processes become so bloated they prevent any actual work from getting done. But sure, let's discuss our sprint velocity while the ship is literally stuck.
