3. Must be able to explain to developers why the code works perfectly fine, even when it doesn't
4. Must be able to attend meetings where the only decision made is what to order for lunch
5. Must be able to write reports that are 10 pages long, with only 1 sentence that actually matters
6. Must be able to debug code written by junior developers, while simultaneously judging them for their life choices
