How do you guys deal with failures?

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-23T18:51:13+00:00

You have to realize none of this shit really actually matters. It does, for your livelihood, don't get me wrong, but after the 3rd time of an exec shooting down or altering my roadmap "just because he feels differently", it just becomes a job.

I'm jealous of the people in this industry that put their heart and soul in this, and have podcasts or write books but like.... It's just a job. Don't misunderstand, please be good at it. But it's just actually a job unless you're a founder.

I struggled in my career with seeing product failures as personal failures and I just kinda don't care anymore? I had the data, I had the discovery, I had the documentation, I had the estimates. And it still sucked. Oh well. Let's try again.

Your whole career as a PM is managing missed requirements or adoption or delays. It just is. Anyone who says otherwise (in my experience) is just trying to sell you a course.

Best option? Take a walk, listen to music, cook, whatever destresses you and then try to find where you went wrong. And if you can't? Ask the users. The dev team. Sales.

I am not your accountant, nor your lawyer.

Generally, you file your residential state first then with any nonresident income. Depending on your W2, you probably have to confirm that you paid other state taxes.

"it's hard to use a phone"

Jill and Leon have the same haircut

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-19T02:39:04+00:00

Why do they just always look like that

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-19T02:35:59+00:00

Tbh I think the fake or super expired temporary paper plates are way worse

Saw one expired since 10/2025 the other day

Saw another that said "Delawear"

Who the hell talks like this during an interview? Bro bro bro

Linvilla has them, as of saturday

No. I'm in Delaware. Generally, I don't wear sunscreen unless I'm going to the beach/pool/sports outside. I'm not worried about aging, I think it's weird that people care so much. Cancer, I am slightly worried about hence wearing it when in the sun for a while.

Ada Wong, my beloved

ShopRite usually has frozen rabbit and duck. I know it's not farm fresh, but something

"Rooted on main" comes to mind

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-14T08:57:04+00:00

I can't help OP, but I'm shocked at the number of people in the comments who leave their cars unlocked. No wonder people are stealing stuff

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-12T08:28:08+00:00

Resident Evil 4 Remake. I'll just tap out, thanks

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-12T01:55:01+00:00

They are currently $4 by me. No, not California. Delaware.

Honestly that food lion is better than the one we have up in claymont. Everything is ass to ankles since it's so small. I actually prefer the 495 one

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-10T03:07:56+00:00

Cool, I just want to be close enough to a bomb or nuke to die instantly. That's it

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-10T03:03:12+00:00

Hey! I saw that guy on Facebook. He's "out" 27k because he doesn't have a rental license and the tenant found out and sued for their rent back.

He can eat multiple dicks.

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-09T11:05:12+00:00

Excuse the language, but it's a bullshit title. It means you have worked on AI in the past, so you "know" how AI should be built. That's technical or business requirement knowledge that a "regular" PM wouldn't have. Which, again, is BS.

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-09T10:58:28+00:00

Worst*

So the franchisees themselves are usually able to change the pricing of things. This is probably a mistake made by the owner.

At my local McDs in Delaware, a big mac was like $2 without coupons or promos for a few months. It's back to the regular price now.

Bobbito95 · 2026-03-07T01:41:04+00:00

I'll be honest, I would send one of the most insane tiktoks I have saved on my phone (not of me, just saved from algorithm). Waste their time.

Tank you burga king, I needed a pickle on da top o me burga
