Nobody there read any manuals at all. It was discouraged byReminds me of the "manager" I had in '74 or '75. I had just read some articles about some, relatively, new concepts - structured programming and top-down design. Maintenance was just starting on a new system that a lot of novice programmers (including moi) had programmed, and it was a mess. So I proposed studying and then using these techniques to develop more maintainable programs. But the boss said we had too much backlog to waste our time on such nonsense (unproven concepts in his mind). The lead programmer and I just went ahead and did it anyway. The boss was clueless.
the nitwit "manager". Wastes too much time.
