Does Software sucks? Being a manager is not so easy…
Yuck ! It might really suck. There are more sucking things than those though ! 😛 (See the previous post for more information !!)
Are we sucked up by the work ? or with too much work load ? or too much pressure ?
Ya…atleast some of these , to at least some of us.
So, if there is some work that is sucking up, there is someone on top who in the first place, gave us the work. The sucker is here !!
The most sucking thing that can happen is , when you are in loads of sucking work, your colleage comes to you and asks you, why are you looking sucked up ?!!?!
Bad words apart, when we say it sucks.. what doesnt suck ? Every job is like that. Every work is some way or the other tough. We just label few out of some repeatedly heard news or information, and hence the impression.
Neither the sucker who is here till now is not so bad. Being a manager is not so easy. “A manager cannot be nice to his direct reports”. He has to extract work, not in the way he wants, not in the way his direct reports do it , but in the way his manager wants it to be done ! So his manager sucks too !
This is just a heirarchy that causes the work load. Not the work itself. Not the manager himself.
Do we inherently dislike work ? May not be. I personally dont accept this at all. I want to love my work. Enjoy it , take the least pressure and before it gets to suck me, i wanna ‘s/f’uck it.
It will be a great opportunity to manage people if you know how to not trouble the relations, and if you remember how you feel when you are in your direct reportees’ place.
Manager-Reportee relation is one beautiful ‘couple’, which if coupled with proper encouragement, a tap on the back for small and insignificant achievements and with freedom/time can make ‘dead’ lines invisible.
I wanna do research on this. Anyone interested in coming along? 😛
For those of you, who didnt have any experience of this sucking, and just presuming that software industry sucks : you are honestly and seriously mistaken. Take a relook. Experience it yourself. Enjoy the enjoyment being a pink collared labour !
