English (US) Efficient vs. effective

Permalink 02:40:02 pm, by Francois PLANQUE Email , Categories: Superior wisdom, Software engineering, Productivity

Guy 1: I am so efficient I can fold 100 parachutes in a hour.

Guy 2: I am so effective I can fold 100 parachutes and every single one of them will open right.

Would you rather give your parachutes to the efficient or to the effective guy?

Now what I'd like to know is why all these programmers we interview pride themselves on being efficient?
I'm so sick of their industrial strength bug generating skills... >:-[

This is were you find the stuff that didn't fit into my more serious blogs.
