"Well--well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?"
It's funny, before I starting working as a developer I thought this guy was useless, but now I understand how valuable not having to deal with the customers actually is.
As much as we make fun of the new Agile/Startup/SV world, it looks like I'd absolutely dread work on a 90's Software company (though granted this is exagerated for comedic purposes).
