I am working on a Waterfall project again and being reminded of what’s wrong with it (a lot).
The gantt gave me 4 days to work on a feature however I am a little behind. Since the gantt said it will take 4 days (and it can’t be extended since it will impact other assignments) and I know that I have the testing phase of the QA ahead, I am not going to complete this feature and let the QA open bugs on that when the time comes. I am buffering to the testing phase.
Now I will finish the task in 4 days and everybody will be happy.
Ridiculous, isn’t it?
