Drudgery
I don't think I have ever had such a lack of motivation in my entire life. I've reached a new low in my short(read: long) 26 years of life. Our development cycle has moved into a new phase of our Meeting Driven Development. We've now taken a completely reactionary approach at handling situations. We're in Fire Fighting mode. This is the absolute worse place a project can ever be in. What compounds the problem is that some people think this is a good thing, hand out tasks, and consider that they've done a good job.
hrm, back to the task of the hour.

The people that think this approach is a good thing are the incompetent project manager, architect, and application development manager. What frustrates me is the fact executive management has no clue these losers cannot manage the project and are running it into the ground.
Reactive project management is a quality of individuals that do not know better. The individuals lack the basic skills needed to plan, organize, and manage project resources.
