Boss Asks How Long It Will Take

WHEN BOSS ASKS ME HOW LONG IT'S GONNA TAKE TO ADD A NEW FEATURE HE AND THE CLIENT DISCUSSED OVER THE PHONE MINUTES BEFORE

A fortune teller in an ornate costume gazes into a crystal ball while looking dramatically uncertain. The joke is that a boss asks for an estimate on a feature that was only discussed with the client moments ago, leaving the developer with no information to predict the timeline. It is used as a reaction to impossible or premature deadline questions.
