Introduction

This week we're talking about why we are so bad at estimating. I remodeled our laundry room a little while ago and it took me 12 days of work over the course of about a month. It wasn't even the first time that I had done something very similar to this but I was still way way off in my estimation. We like to pick on the Sydney Opera House when we talk about estimating because it's such a great example for what can be achieved with better estimates.
