Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Isn't that what makes it a good interview question, though?
Not if I don't know corporate culture, no. Unless you want me to toss it back and say "It's not about me--it may not even be about you. It's about the business owner and the specific project priorities."
As an interviewer, I'd just be looking for people who had a definite answer either way, and marking them down whichever side they picked.
In my job, we set the deadline so quality is more important. In my previous job deadlines were probably more important but the real answer is "superhumanly turn in perfect work by deadline." But anyway, as an interviewee I wouldn't necessarily know which is more important. It's a question that seem slightly unfair to me, given how much it depends on knowledge of the culture.
Not Paul Bettany issue, though.
I'd take it. As long as he was part of the long-term deal.
Breaking in to say that today is National Bittersweet Chocolate Day.
Yeah--in my current job, I have a deadline for my initial report. I get dinged if I'm always turning it in late or if it's always crappy, but it's getting reviewed and edited. So if it's pretty ok I can count on the review cycle to shape it up, but I'd I really need time I can let them know we have less editing time. OTOH, the final report deadline, if it's not in by deadline we don't get paid. So they'd rather have something incomplete than nothing.
Hivemind question: If I put cooked chicken breasts in the freezer, how long would they last?
Depends on what you want to do with them and how well they were wrapped up. 3-6 months, I'd say?
[edit: Oh, I didn't notice you said cooked. In that case I have no idea.]
So you think cooked would last less time, or more? If you had to guess.
But anyway, as an interviewee I wouldn't necessarily know which is more important.
Yeah, it would be very situational depending on the project. If you are delivering something that isn't final, then maybe the deadline is more important. If it's final, then probably quality is more important and the issue is relating that the deadline is at risk as early as possible.
They should stay safe to eat pretty much as long as you want to keep them frozen. Most sources say they'll taste okay for a year, but I haven't personally tested that.
My local coffee shop is closed to re-evaluate their business model. Sad, now.
