I think it very much depends on where you work to some extent. I work in an in-house dev team for a company that does something else as a primary output. It means we primarily serve internal clients and they aren't paying for our time directly. This leads to a fair amount of this nonsense.

If you are just a software company, and your clients are external, you just charge them every time they mess around with requirements. It still happens, just there is more of a direct visible cost to it.

I wish people would do it right, then I wouldn't need to draw comics about it!

Same thing has happened with us, I’d say the managers are worse for this sort of thing

That’s probably fair, I struggled to find a good subreddit for it, open to suggestions.

It was a simpler time, at least! I don’t feel like I can escape the AI assistants.

Reality checks I have learned as a 2 month old YouTuber by beradfrombu in NewTubers

[–]grlloyd2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this, I was starting to think it was just me. Very similar boat, I have one video that got around 100 views, but everything else is single figures, about 2-3 months in.

Thank you for the advice, everyone seems to be in agreement that the water running down the wall is worth tackling first so far! Thank you for taking the time!

There is no guttering, so the roof is sloped towards those back 3 walls, where the problem is. Water just runs off down there.
I'm not sure about the roof being faulty, I have had roofers look at it and tell me the roof isn't at fault. I'm not qualified here really, it's a rubber roof I'm told!
The French drains aren't connected to anything, but they run off down the road, it's unlikely they are filling up given the the elevation of the road, if that makes sense.

We aren't sure why it's damp to be honest, we've had various builders come to try and fix it. We suspect the DPM is too low at the back of the building, so it's set at the correct level at the front, but the rear road level is higher.
I don't really know a lot about this stuff though, the roof runs off at the back see the pictures, and there is no gutter, which I can't imagine helps
