Murphy’s three laws

Hey I was reading Murphy’s three laws. I thought these would be interesting to you also as they are very general and we feel them always but having them stated as laws crystallizes them in our mind. They are all self explanatory but I would state e.g. of them.

Do add on with e.g. from your life also J

Law1 -Nothing is as easy as it seems

We had taken up a contract project as freelance developers in third year . It was a glass cutting optimization software ;). We thought we were damn cool and after listening the requirements we thought we could figure it out easily. We spent considerable amount of time on it and Bang we coded it, and went to show it

Now that customer says nope this is not like what he wanted. He said do this, I want this and this also would be nice . We almost told them F*** offJ.

Learnt we knew only to code and nothing not other parts of SDLC ;)

But I also believe that nothing is as hard as it seems

( Though one of my friend would be shouting right now he is an extremist and sees thing only in black and white J J)

Law 2-Everything will take longer than you think it will

The first thing coming to my mind is B.E. project. I am an over optimistic guy when its comes to scheduling of work (I have gone much better now). We had a super optimistic schedule for our B.E. project. And all (Me my project partners had agreed in flash of a second J ) .

The first release which was scheduled to finish in one month took three months ;).

But we completed the project and passed B.E. successfully. Yeah J

Law 3-Anything that can go wrong will go wrong

This is one of a recent one .This law fits for all the performances I do .There a dance competition I had taken part which was a couple dance completion. Flat I have an argument with my dance partner ;) and we are about to quit before performing.

We go and perform in that my pant does not have loops so cant wear a belt and my pant is loose . Yup obviously during the performance it starts falling down . Oooops .

Crowd laughing. To add to the fun of the crowd we had a prop as a car .

I land up holding the car the wrong side , so its like I am driving the from outside the car ;) . Crowd has a laugh of their time.

Yup when things go wrong they do go wrong J
