Lead Engineer: So I think we're all set on the microwave design, but, for the beep feature—how many times do you want it to beep?
Product Manager: What do you mean?
Lead Engineer: You said you wanted it to beep when the food was done. How many times should it beep?
Product Manager: Oh. I didn't know we could do multiple. Um. 2? 3?
Lead Engineer: Sure, yea, we can do that.
Product Manager: Should we do more?
Lead Engineer: If you want? I don't care. I don't even own a microwave.
Product Manager: Let's do 3. We gotta make sure they hear it.
Lead Engineer: Ok sure, 3. Got it.
Product Manager: Actually we're already behind schedule. If this gets flagged in user testing we're fucked. Make it 4.
Lead Engineer: Um, okay. You sure? 4 beeps?
