The over-complicators
One of the truisms of projects is that things don’t get done unless people do them. Breaking that down, you need to know the things,…
There are people who make life more difficult. They specialise in niggling at wrinkles that aren’t really there, they worry the bone on contracts even after they’ve been signed, they tell you seventeen reasons why something can’t be done and specialise in digging their heels between the way things are now and any kind of change.
For them, nothing is too complicated already. They’re always looking for other factors and dependencies and potential impacts and regulatory gray lines.
To be clear, some of their obstructions might be valid. Every now and again. Once a month, maybe twice.
Every other time, all they do is sloooooww things down and frustrate everyone inside their event horizon. If you let them close, they’ll suck in everything until it achieves singularity and time itself breaks down. (Overdramatic?)
