To be fair there's a lot of people working on any software project that are not directly involved, but whose work is essential for the project to succeed. For all we know, this insensitive brick could be anyone from a janitor to a project manager or an automation engineer working with their internal infrastructure.

There's a ton of people in the software business who have never written a line of code, that are essential. It's not any kind of measure on how leech you are, but your message shows well how high you're sitting on your coding throne with inbuilt toilet
