Agile!!!!!

Live when you work,work is worship,do what you really enjoy,time management ,Self management , time for your family etc .. there are many these kind of philosophical statements in our day to day life , esp when you are into Information Technology business.

As a morale responsibility of ones boss , he has to preach these golden words to all his subordinates and one has to appreciate it, having said that do he really care whether his subordinates could practice all these or do he care that they have infrastructure to follow the same. In most of developing countries including India, i couldn't find any activities happening on behalf of well being of normal workers in IT world.

If i capture life cycle of normal Software Engineer's into a scene, it would look like

" Wake up in the morning not knowing what time it is, go for morning ablution with no idea what time he slept.

No time for breakfast since he is supposed to attend a conference call, where he don't have any role other than just to show off bcoz he is a team lead and he wont get good appraisal score if he don't show off. He is into Software world because he found fancy in developing software right from his school days till he gets into a "Indian software company", now he don't know anything about new developments in software world as he is a team lead and his main duties are like , 1) make sure that all his team mates report to him once they finish work
2) team mates should cc him on all mails
3 )Team mates should do the work what he said in priority "
etc ..
after spending rest of the day in figuring out "who delivered a bad code to onsite folks, since there was some problem in production env" , he is off to home by 9 o clock,on way the way stoped by a bakery had 3 chicken burger and 2 coke since he skiped the lunch as he was preparing PPT for his appraisal discussion. Now his mind is on his growing tummy, he was an athlete during school/college days . Now the fast food menu has made him a man of junk food.

Sleeping time........... dont know what time it is.. RIP.....

Is he really doing what he love to do? time for family ? personal life ? time management ? Life???Big NO to all.... For sure if we feel this way then he wouldnt be a fool to realize all these... guessed it right .. he feel like

1) Change company , since he want to have better salary.

2)Need better job sine his IQ is decreasing.

3)He want to stop this police work and to work for policing people.

Next..............

Agile is the way for his all troubles .......
