25 what do you expect, if every second day you end up protecting your
26 work from the qa@ team's newer developers, including yourself, never
27 admitting any wrong doings, never receiving an proper apology for the
28 wasted time, slapping QA tag on it
29
30 in total, you can count the wasted time in days, if not soon in weeks,
31 not minutes, so i feel
32 the time for "extra" politeness has passed, already gave it a go, didn't
33 get the expected
34 results
