It's not a bug
Let me start off by a small clarification for the people who are not so conversant with the software programming terminology - a 'Bug' refers to an error in software code.
There is a certain expert in our field, whose mails/articles are widely followed in our company. In the signature of his e-mails, he used to include this quote (indicating the philosophy usually adopted by software companies) - "It's not a bug, it's a feature".
When I had just joined the company, and was relatively very young in my team, I used to play pranks on my TL (team-lead). One of my favorite ones was to take any insect, dead or alive, found in our seating area, to the TL and tell him - "Sir, see, I found a Bug!!" One day the TL happened to see a mouse running around (no-one still believes it can happen in a high-tech software office!), and called out to me - "You are so adept at catching bugs; go, catch this one". I promptly corrected him, in all seriousness, and a self-righteous manner - "It's not a bug, it's a Creature !"
lol...feature and creature !!
ReplyDeleteIn our industry a bug is a bug and if found we get the wrath of our clients...by putting their health @ risk...and lots of ?? from our own office..as if I had put that bug....!
Hmmm ... are you related to the field of medicine ? (Looks that way from your statement). I think we engineers have a much simpler life compared to the doctors (oneof the reason why I chose not to be a doctor ;-) ).
ReplyDeleteDuring our BTech course, we used to omit studying some of the chapters which had less weightage in exams. And I always thought, what if the aspiring doctors did the same - didn's study stomach or liver or kidney ? ;-)
LOLLLLLLLLLL
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you were so mischievous !! I wouldn't have done either of the two... Me a serious person. :)
Waise, nice excuse for not studying medicine. ;)
Well, my mouse is usually connected to my computer!!

@Cuckoo : I wasn't like that always, and now again I am not ... that was a transitional phase :-)
ReplyDeleteYou - a serious person ... hmmmm ... all you do is write naughty posts ;-)
@PM : Hahaha! ROFL !!!
Nah - No doctor ....would you still consider me a Doctor...if I say I use to do many operations on Rats :-) you know during my school days....!
ReplyDeleteHmmm now thats a thought - some doc not studying parts of their course.
Hehe. May be not. A couple were rats were unfortunate enough to be operated on by me too! :-) Since they didn't survive, I thought let me not try on humans (another excuse for not being a doctor :-))
