Subject:Re[2]: Purpose of document review process? From:Kathleen Padova <kpadova -at- ASICENTRAL -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 12 May 1997 17:31:00 -0500
This reminds me of the looks I got one time when I asked about sending drafts
around for review. "What do you mean, your work needs to be checked? Isn't your
writing accurate?"
This could either be a whole heck of a lotta trust <yeah, right> or a
potentially dangerous situation. Fortunately I got out of it by pointing out
the programmers habit of changing screens and adding features at whim and not
even telling the project manager about it. Definitely a sign of greater
problems; but I wasn't about to be the sacrificial lamb.
