I am sure you know this modern company structure scheme:
пидорась == faggot
IT отдел == IT crowd/department/section
The past
I remember when I was younger and I was writing some bytes for living. I still know that there are just 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don’t.
WTF?
I was wondering all my life why the heck we need a marketing and community management droids at our team. We create a kick-ass products that we can sell them via our web-page using 33 lines of HTML code an an Paypal account.
I am on the dark side of the force now and I know why.
The truth in 5 points*
If there is no marketing droids:
- Less people know about us – our clients are our friends and peers and visitors from Google are welcomed too.
- 1 = Less money – well, I don’t have to explain this, do I?
- 2 = No salary++
- 3 = No beer money NOR I just got an invitation to work for another company that has a great marketing department.
- R.I.P GPWGFTCCW (Great Product with great functionalities that can change the world.)
If there is no community management guys:
- No community around us = We have to test our product by ourselves in any possible OS, CPU, RAM, ….
- No community around us = How to know what to improve and what the clients really need from our products?
- No community around us = How to get ideas for new products?
- No community around us = How to find someone that will tell you honestly “You’re wrong”
- No community around us = How to find someone who will help you with documentation, bug hunting, beer drinking, and to cheer you up – “You’re good. I love your product.”
* I am so sorry, but someone should change the ordered list to start from 0/zero/. Starting from 1 is so lame.
