Schedule Games.

[elfs]

Great Caesar's Ghost, I think this woman had hidden cameras watching the PMs at ${UNSPECIFIED_FORMER_EMPLOYERS}

Check this out: Schedule Games. Start at the bottom. "Schedule Chicken," "Hope Is Our Most Important Strategy," "Pants on Fire," "Schedule == Commitment," and "The Schedule Tool Is Always Right," are so painfully familiar they're giving me flashbacks.

Sadly, they're universal. One of the reasons I'm not sad to NOT be in the games industry right now is that these aren't the exception, they're the rule.

Schedule Game #2 obviously demonstrates a lack of understanding of the 90-90 Rule of Project Management -- "The first 90% of the job requires the first 90% of the time; the remaining 10% of the job requires the other 90% of the time."
