As developers we need to be open to learning and self improvement.<br /><br />I have come up against this attitude myself and it&#39;s not an easy one to handle as it can be demoralising and thereby hindering your own progress - good luck!Chrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12173196387962292496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33777038.post-10792189808371598132010-09-06T04:07:45.256+01:002010-09-06T04:07:45.256+01:00Not entirely surprising. When people ask me what I do I still switch between programmer/coder/software developer/developer/software engineer. Our profession still hasn&#39;t decided what to call itself. I don&#39;t think the idea of software craftsmanship has entered the mainstream yet and when it does, it&#39;ll just get heaped on the pile.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33777038.post-62465726743300409592010-09-06T00:08:42.950+01:002010-09-06T00:08:42.950+01:00Thanks for sharing this story!<br /><br />I actually liked the concise writing style!<br /><br />As for the content of your story it&#39;s quite sad. Software craftsmanship is one of the books that has shaped who I am and my career, definitively a great book!Enrique Comba Riepenhausenhttp://ecomba.orgnoreply@blogger.com
