I have a love/hate relationship with the software developers where I work.
You see, my job is to find bugs (flaws) in pre-released software and report them to software developers so they can fix it before it goes out.
Yes. I'm responsible for product quality. I DO see the irony in this.
Case in point, this IM conversation between me and one of them - Larry - recently, where I had to tell him that a bug I approved as 'fixed' was actually still broken:
Larry didn't seem amused at that.
Go figure.
Shortly afterwards, though, I had a bug to look at where I needed to test the Polish language version to see if it was right.
I'm not Polish.
I don't speak Polish.
Hence, this:
Then he assigned the bug to some guy in Poland to see if it was fixed, clearing the way for me to write this post because that would have taken up, like, 15 minutes of my time.
Small miracles, people.

You must be an experience to work with! lol
Your job sure seems like a lot of fun!
Oh, I wish I could interact with our developers! Those guys have about as much common sense as used chewing gum.
Hands up who's singing Tenacious D right now?
Honestly, I don't really know if Larry gets and appreciates you.
