'Never deploy to production before weekend or holidays.'

Deep thought!

That's weird, why though?

@Mba3gar to prevent bugs from propogating into prod just before everyone leaves.

People are even creative with this

“Read only Fridays” is a thing.

@Mba3gar

Friday changes/deploys are a bad idea because they increase the probability of an incident during the weekend. Incidents usually require escalation to management types, who don't want to spend Saturday pacing around on the phone while they miss their kid's soccer game.

I mean, nobody wants that, but management types get what they want.
