I worked for Blizzard back in 2007 in support for 6 months (GameMaster for WoW). None of our managers ever played WoW nor were they familiar with video games at all. One of the managers was even outspoken against video games. He often said he will never let his children play video games because it robs them their creativity and that instead he'd rather play 20 hours of Dungeons & Dragons than 2 minutes of WoW.
I witnessed the same behavior in other big tech and gaming companies throughout my career. It was quite an eye opening experience to witness that many employees within big companies who are not technical and work in a management position, often don't use or care about their own products.

"politics over progress, processes over logic, emotions over process" - the base. the essence of any enterprise.

“I’m not saying they know what they’re doing, I’m just saying I really don’t care.”

Honestly, based.

@impossibur

"I have never used our product"

accurate

@Arkreiner

The constant "I don't have access." "Make sure you get access." Is too fucking real. I have been waiting over 2 months to gain access to a Microsoft dashboard to do a part of my job. Damn agile environment

@KnightMirkoYo

"We have a tool to consolidate our documents... my downloads folder" 

So accurate

"I'm gonna issue a Jira ticket, but I'll send it by email... so you will forget."
God damn you, product manager.

@sstranger1007

The first sentence "I identify problems in the project early .. and silence them." Gold!

@rokker333

I swear, this YT channel is Dilbert for a modern world. Insanely accurate. I don't get a salary, I get pain compensation.

@squetch8057

3:00  "i could build the entire app in Excel, but i don't get paid to do that, i get paid to remind the engineers of that". That is the line

@OviDB

“I take in 9 hours of work toxicity every day — show me an AI that can do that” BRILLIANT 😂

@jpbastyr

scarily accurate

"nobody has a clue what we're doing"

@sethstor

"This was a management decisions and I will not question it... I am not saying they know what they are doing, I am just saying I really don't care"

@sean6793

The fact that I didn't realize it was a joke initially when he said, "I don't have any new ideas that's a different department", because I've worked in several businesses where that is quite literally the case made me sit back and stare at the ceiling for a bit.

@yrtepgold

"I align stake holders, various cross functional teams, listen to their needs and requirements... And silence them." 😂😂😂  Top Tier Product Management.

@PrivacyRevocation

"we did not meet our OKRs this quarter, we need to change our OKRs". Just came out of a company where this was actually the case.

@datadrivendev

"I get paid to remind the engineers of that" epic

@practical-dreamer

I’m surprised this video upload made it past corporate security.
