> Anybody who complained or criticized were branded as not being team players or being old-school
truly being a team player would be to realise the team identity does not include the company but is instead built around professional identity as fellow bit-gardening day labourers who exchange their time and energy providing engineering and operations services to the owners of the company in exchange for money -- then banding together collectively (perhaps starting a union?) to increase negotiating power to obtain better pay and working conditions
if anyone has a particularly pithy response to "you build it, you run it" along the lines of "if you'll pay both of my invoices for performing both jobs, OK", i'd love to hear it
