The article is less about Y2K itself than it is about the absurdity of work in the corporate consulting world. It’s a good read.

I wasn’t there for the play-doh management fad but I sure experienced capital A Agile and honestly can’t tell which is more infantile.

In a sense, the corporate environment of constant indefinite emergency described in the article is the same as arbitrary deadlines and non-stop “sprints”.
