Overly Pedantic
Today my brain had a situation where it looped continuously making a decision whether to email a customer on their wording in an email. I got stuck for a few minutes at the keyboard before deciding to stop being a pedantic developer type being overly concerned with semantic correctness. The problem was that a customer asked for a handy feature addition which would save them lots of copy/paste keyboard time. It was a good idea for additional functionality, but the email request boiled down to "can this be fixed?". This is what got my brain in a loop. Fixed? What's broken? It works just as intended and requested, my developer's brain replied internally. Sometimes, the attributes that make a good developer/programmer aren't so good when applied to dealing with customers. Maybe we all need "Intellisense for the brain" to help us along our wayward semantic travels?
