Broken Windows

If you have not heard or recently read the Broken Window theory, I would highly recommend it. Basically, you should not complain about the base behavior you are seeing if it's the behavior that you have communicated, through your own behavior. What you should do is understand what you are witnessing and address the root cause. For example, if you accept misspellings in requirements, don't be surprised if your web site is full of misspelled words (one of my major flaws)........always set the quality standards high, the productivity and cost effectiveness will out weigh the upfront effort put in.
