I dont care if it takes 3-4 weeks, but tell me that beforehand, so I dont plan that your work will be done in time. Dont tell me it will be done in 4 days when it takes 4 weeks.

And this happens with different developers, not just one.
It delays everything else. Now I have to put off the QA people I had.

Fucking hate when people say theyre going to do something in time, then they disappear.
I told my last job it would take 3 days.
He shot back with, no way it should only take 2 hours.

It took 3 days, I got fired.
