My company says it wants to move fast and break things but they really just want you to move fast and get mad when things break 🫠

"Everybody knows you can have it done well, fast, or cheap. Pick two."

"No! All three! All the time! Zero drawbacks! All profits and benefits! I am a very good and visionary boss. Have some room temperature Little Caesar's on the house and make me rich."

Break things... Just not the things that affect me!

tbf, the breakage isn't supposed to be internal, but external. Old worn in structures, bureaucratic overhead, etc

Well it didn't say it wants to "Move fast -> break things -> not get mad", so I'd say it has already done the things it is saying it wants to, right?
