If you finish the backlog, you’ll get laid off,

the backlog keeps being increased (by you and your manager at times),

so it never gets finished.

Seems easy enough to explain.

There has to be a dragon being fought to account for all this money. Even if the dragon is bs.

Sometimes the dragon is technical debt.

When you’re historical Google, building three or more competing chat platforms…? That’s pretty much bs.

Downvote away, but consider a reply explaining why.
