Thats when I carried you...

Software version of famous footprint quote...

Another day a S/w Programmer was having a similar conversation with his PM when his whole project flashed before his eyes as a series of
footsteps on the sands of time. He saw that there were two pairs of footprints, but during the most difficult times in the project there were only one set of footprints.

He asked his PM "You said you will be with me throughout the project, but why have you deserted me during the most critical times of the project??" to which the PM answered "Son, I did not desert you, I was always with you...you see only one set of footprints because during those difficult times, I was sitting on your head!!"
