@forrestbrazeal This just made me realize how many years it's been since I've even remembered Gartner exists, much less used one of their reports to try to convince upper management that I actually know what the fuck I'm talking about and they should just give me the goddam budget to do the work that then they'll claim all the credit for. Those were good years and I'm looking forward to getting back to them immediately after I send this reply.

@forrestbrazeal I'll never forget working at startups where the executives paid Gartner to produce reports saying the company was the next big thing, and at the same time studied Gartner reports to learn what the next big thing was.
