Both Best and Worst

We have a saying about shipping work in our teams:

“It’s the best it’s ever been, and the worst it’ll ever be.”

If it’s the best it’s ever been, we did the job properly. We listened to the right signals, we did the best we could, all while revering process.

If it’s the worst it’ll ever be, we’re committed to continuing to do the job properly. We’ll continue to listen to the right signals, do the best we can, all while revering process.

No body of work lasts forever. But for the time we have, make it the best it’s ever been, with a commitment to keeping eyes and minds open for what those we serve need from us next.
