Recently some quotes struck my mind from a blog. It is basically , i think, 100% true , even though described in as a funny way.

See:

Project Manager is a Person who thinks nine Women can deliver a baby
in One month

Developer is a Person who thinks it will take 18 months to deliver a Baby.

Onsite Coordinator is one who thinks single Woman can deliver nine
babies in one month

Client is the one who doesn`t know why he wants a baby

Marketing Manager is a person who thinks he can deliver a baby even
if no man and woman are available

Resource Optimization Team thinks they don`t Need a man or
woman;They`ll produce a child with zero resources

Documentation Team thinks they don`t care whether the child is
delivered, they`ll just document 9 months.

Quality Auditor is the person who is never happy with the PROCESS to
produce a baby.And lastly……

Tester is a person who always tells his wife that this is not the Right baby
