They Think Differently, Don’t They?

  They say: "A programmer once died in the shower, he read the shampoo bottle instructions: Lather. Rinse. Repeat.".

  It is also said that an implementer, once explained: "My wife is like "Terms & Conditions" of a website, I never understand what she says, but I always accept ...."; his son was also wondering: "Do kids usually take 9 months to download…?"

  You may have heard the famous saying in its updated version: "To an optimist, the glass is half full, to a pessimist, the glass is half empty, but to a good software tester, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.."

  These were some of the phrases, heard among programmers, quality and software people. So; if you happen to be or to have a "Computer- worker" family member, friend, or relative, you would be familiar with the way they think, speak, and deal with things.

  Software people usually share a lot of common thoughts, and ways in seeing and considering life incidents. Working with computer programs and applications, whether as a programmer, a designer, a quality engineer does have a clear impact. For some people working with a device, numbers, and code, and staying in front of a monitor or a laptop for a while seems to cause a negative effect, in that a human loses the soft skills of human interaction. For instance, a quality engineer husband might be causing sort of a headache to his spouse whenever his eyes move away from the screen to glimpse the microwave timer not properly set. For others, however, the impact is far different. 
  
  When submitting error free, high standard computer products, fully tested programs becomes a habit, this may highly help you think systematically and try to be as perfectionist as possible even in the simple daily details.
