There was an
engineer,
manager and
programmer driving down a
steep mountain road. The
brakes failed and the car
careened down the road out of control. Half way down the driver managed to stop the car by running it off the road and against some dirt on the side of the road,
narrowly avoiding going over a
cliff.

They all got out,
shaken by their
narrow escape from death, but otherwise
unharmed. The manager said “To fix this problem we need to organize a
committee, have meetings, and through a
process of
continuous improvement,
develop a solution.”

The
engineer said “No that would take too long, and
besides that
method never worked before. I have my
trusty pen knife here and will
take apart the brake system,
isolate the problem and correct it.”

The
programmer said “I think you're both wrong! I think we should all push the car back up the hill and see if it happens again.”
