Introduction
In 2018, we at Incompetent Inc. embarked on a journey to develop the world's most complex and convoluted software solution. Our team of 12 engineers, 3 project managers, and 2 interns worked tirelessly for 6 months to create a product that was supposed to "disrupt the industry" but ultimately ended up as a laughing stock.
Our team's motto, "We're not lazy, we're just highly efficient in our incompetence," was proudly displayed on the wall of our conference room.
Key Challenges
- Creating a system that didn't crash every 5 minutes.
- Developing a user interface that didn't resemble a kindergartener's playroom.
- Writing code that didn't resemble a kindergartener's scribbles.
Case Study Findings
Our research team, led by Dr. Emily Nostradamus, Ph.D., discovered that our team's primary challenge was not a technical one, but rather a human resources issue. It turned out that our team's coffee machine was not stocked with enough hazelnut creamer, leading to a 30% decrease in productivity.
Recommendations
We recommend that all companies, especially those in the IT sector, stock their break rooms with an ample supply of hazelnut creamer. Additionally, we suggest hiring more incompetent employees to "balance out" the team's skillset.
