Ironically am sitting here waiting for some upstream fixes from a team on the other side of the planet before I can even start my work this week, it was meant to be done a few days ago. Perhaps some things are more assembly line than you might imagine.
Well, I don't work remotely but I am waiting on a task to be completed by another team for about a week now. It's something that can't possibly take more than one hour or so to be completed, and I even talked to them in person before submitting the task. That didn't change a thing about their deadlines.
When this happen do you literally just hang out waiting for that? Or do you work on other miscellaneous stuff in the mean time?
There's an unlimited amount of work to do but in an asynchronous development world some things require others to finish their projects first.
