If there is a place that is hiring and cares about Software Quality, I'll take a 70% paycut to work there.

Hey Siri, is my app doing what I wanted it to do?

Siri: Yes, but each action takes 10 minutes to resolve and your users are jumping out of their windows after dealing with your software.

Programmer: Great, my software works!

Hey Siri, my software isn't doing what I wanted it to do. Confirm PRD did not include 10 minute wait times and send my IQ test results again please.
