Ho John Lee’s Weblog

Various versions of these observations on project management have been kicking around for a long time, probably for as long as there have been large scale projects. I wouldn’t be surprised if they eventually found something like this painted on a cave wall or inside one of the Pyramids at some point.

This one is from Troy Angrignon’s blog. The illustration style reminds me of Gary Larson’s Far Side cartoons.

How the project leader understood it
How the analyst designed it
How the programmer wrote it
How the business consultant described it
How the project was documented
What operations installed
How the customer was billed
How it was supported
What the customer really needed
