First off, sorry the comic is only a sketch, the story line is eating a lot of time, plus there's a new project at work.

Secondly, as most of you probably know by now, Fridays are my day to complain about life and work. Today is no different.

If you've ever been a programmer, or in any development/creation type field, then you've most likely been in this position before. Sales sells things that don't exist and promise them before they ever could exist, and who get the pay for it? The sales person. I think there need to be consequences to the selling of things that don't exist. If a non-existent product is sold, then the developer should be paid triple time for overtime they work to get it running. That money should come out of the sales person's commission and/or salary. If the development time is less than 50% of the commission, then the developer should just get 50%. If that was in place, then sales people would think twice before pulling #$%@#$ like this. UG! And they do so non-chalantly because it's not their work. $#%@#$%@#$@ and it happens so often. ug... forget this.
