The Tao of Programming..

Why are programmers non-productive?
Because their time is wasted in meetings.

Why are programmers rebellious?
Because the management interferes too much.

Why are the programmers resigning one by one?
Because they are burnt out.

Having worked for poor management, they no longer value their jobs.

Thus spoke the master programmer: 

"Let the programmers be many and the managers few - then all will be productive.''
