Hilarious picture: Why IT projects fail...

[Descartes]

I received this hilarious picture in a Word document from a client of mine. Ironically, this client was part of an IT project that didn't go as smoothly as anticipated . I just took a screenshot of the Word doc rather than messing with cutting out the individual images; yeah, I'm lazy.

I figured it was an old one, but I had actually never seen it. I lost it after seeing the "How the programmer wrote it" picture.

 

[spidey07]

I like what the programmer wrote and How it was documented.

Espscially the documentation

I've seen one of those before but it was for education and why it sucks in the US.

Wow, I haven't seen that in years. I had forgotten all about it. The scary thing is it's STILL true. Take my current project for example... No, please take it!

Look at the "How It Was Documented" frame... Most business people I know expect us to be mind readers.

I liked the "How the sales executive described it" one.
