      @wls-itguy said in IT Quotes I Like:

      Had a boss when I was at my first IT job say "efficiency doesn't always pay the bills"

      We were arguing over the fact that we estimated a job to be 25 hours and it only took us 19. Rather than sit at the job for another 5 hours to make the money we wrapped up. The powers that be didn't like that. I wasn't there too much longer

      That could be considered stealing imo.

      Happened all the time. Bid X # of hours. Finish early, drag it out until we hit the hours bid.

      You fix this by bidding the project, not the hours. Of course, this can royally bite you in the ass.

      It's more that you bid for a minimum.

      awww... so that's how all those city construction projects work... yep this road will cost $1 million and be done in 3 months.. oh.. this just a minimum, it could easily be 100x that and take 10 years.

      Of course, it is literally impossible to accurately estimate those kinds of projects. But government, being corrupt, doesn't care about fixing that process. They care about politics. So fake estimates are valuable to them, and overruns are valuable to the vendors. So "everyone" wins because the only loser is the taxpayer who has no say.

                        No issue, no problem

                        That's what I tell people as a developer when they "report" bugs... usually in any imaginable way except an issue tracker. Can be easily translated to:

                        No ticket, no problem.
