The expectation is based on the assumption that everyone is efficient, which clearly isn't true.
But when the expectation failed or delayed, no punishment is happening, so efficient people just enter next cycle, with more servere situation.

Are you familiar with the bucket analogy?

  1. Take a bucket.
  2. Fill the bucket full of big rocks.
  3. Is the bucket full?
  4. Pour gravel into the bucket.
  5. Is the bucket full?
  6. Pour sand into the bucket.
  7. Is the bucket full?
  8. Pour water into the bucket.

The point is, there's always more that you can do.

Intel has been increasingly requiring people to do more with less for several years now. They will push you to the breaking point, just like the bucket analogy. I let them do that to me and it burned me out. Recovery from that took a couple of years, don't let them do that to you.

IR you are fired because you couldn’t do 5 in 4.

IR because manufacturing ready didn’t produce revenue on time

IR because everthing you said didn’t happen
“Rear view mirror”
“Chip with tags last till end of 2023”

BoD you listening to Pat’s talk
