What if my taxi driver didn't take me from Manhattan to La Guardia today? Would his day be completely different or would he eventually end up at the airport anyway?

He would end up there most likely, unless he's been avoiding the airport by asking his customers. Some don't even want to deal with the airport. I'm finding a lot of uber/taxi drivers who complain nowadays while taking you somewhere saying it's going to take X hours to get back to where they need to be later today, and make it sound like it's your fault.

I’m a mid level engineer and my team is overwhelmed. There’s more work than we can complete in the timelines that leadership/product has committed to, which is causing leadership to override technical decisions seemingly to meet those deadlines. An example would be routing all live traffic to a feature which was not fully tested, instead of waiting until testing is complete or having that change be dormant and the feature enabled later. Has anyone dealt with this type of issue?
