MANAGING HUMANS: BITING AND HUMOROUS TALES OF A SOFTWARE ENGINEERING MANAGER

Acknowledgments

I'd like to acknowledge and thank Liz Danzico for teaching me about editors and, more importantly, for laughing out loud on the subway while reading early chapters of this book. Both Melle Baker and Jim Sumser took the time to figure out Rands and to remind me who he was when I lost him. The readers of Rands in Repose unwittingly guided the creation of this work by reading, commenting, and mailing. If they hadn't asked for a book, there wouldn't be one.

I wouldn't be a manager without the guidance, insight, and common sense of Tom Paquin.
