#3Why optimize for this? Some of the worst jobs I’ve had were the ones where a PM would say “drop whatever sprint items you’re working on and immediately context switch to this bug”. Sounds like this is their regular day? And what happens if a bug comes in Friday @ 4pm?

#9Reminds me of my stint in software. We could easily to these numbers as well.
Until we outsourced code production to a country halfway round the globe. Completely changed the dynamics from solving interesting problems in nicely written code, to chasing people around you've never met and never will to fix bugs in 1000+ lines functions, while you know it's an exercise in futility as no doubt there will be lots and lots more where that came from.
