Super-Duper

Super-Duper

True craftsmen hone their skills however they can. Decision coaches make decisions, scrum masters play poker, surgeons help out at the local butcher shop. A cool side project looks good on a resume as well.

Code monkey Bubbles was working on his side project when master Soo walked in. 'What are you up to?' asked the master.

'I am replacing the Duper engine with a Super-Duper one,' replied the novice.

'Looks like it refuses to fit,' said Soo.

'There's nothing a good hammer can fix,' grinned Bubbles.

'Are you certain you need a rocket engine in the bicycle?'

'It's better to be prepared than sorry.'

Soo looked at the bike with great curiosity and said, 'You haven't ridden it yet, have you?'

'How do you know?' the novice was puzzled.

'The pipe. Make sure to change it before you do, otherwise the noise will be unbearable,' explained Soo.

Bubbles requested master Bingo to assist him in figuring out what's wrong with his rocket bike.

'I see you have reworked the engine. Did the old one break?' asked master Bingo.

'No, the Super model is really bad. Everyone uses Duper these days,' replied Bubbles.

Ape pointed out with a finger, 'You have mixed these two wire connectors.'

'It would have taken me ages to figure this out on my own. I’m forever indebted,' thanked the novice.

'When are you planning to finish it?'

'In two weeks I will give you a ride!' Bubbles gestured thumbs up.
