Major League Vaporware
For the past year or so, every time I went down the hall to get a cup of coffee, I passed by a nice, big, intellectually superior poster of a non-existent “advanced XXXX software architecture”. (I substituted XXX for the actual name in order to stay politically correct and to provide the appearance of “being nice”). Since:
- the damn monstrosity doesn’t exist
- there is no “recorded” physical evidence that the damn monstrosity exists
- nobody’s working on the damn monstrosity
- there are no plans to “allocate resources” to work on the damn monstrosity
- the damn monstrosity doesn’t make any sense with regard to our product portfolio
I decided to flip it over. I could’ve taken it down (even though I didn’t have the ‘authority’ <—- lol!) , but I left it up on purpose. On the back of the poster is nothing but a blank, vanilla, white background; nada. Since customers walk by that poster-lie all the time, I thought it would be best for the company to dispose of the lie before someone asked about it and a company representative would have to lie about the lie.
‘Nuff said.
