Root824677y@hash-table haha
If I'm required to give an exact deadline, I'll just laugh.
I don't put up with stupid shit. -
Today I had to work on some module for Drupal, excepted that a fucking cron job decided to get triggered, so "It might slow things down", like sure, how about executing an SQL request in FIVE minutes ?
It took 2 hours to get done (I won't comment on this), and I swear to god I've been able to reload 15 times only during the process. -
@Ashkin hello am I in the "loosing my time with this job / situation / coworker" ? 😅

C0D4681977ywow exact time lines are scary.
i will go as far as a couple of days here or there, got to give room for random bugs and all, but anything below that is going to far.
Unless they want broken releases that need to be rolled back anyway.

Ugh.
Two days ago we had an hour and a half meeting on which projects to focus on, with the result being all seven are top priority. Because of course.
Last night I told my boss why an api he has me hitting always returns 401s; even gave him the line# responsible for the response (in his code). After an hour and sixteen minutes of him debugging, he finally admitted I might be right. zzz. This morning, he tells me it's on my end, and to ask someone else for their project's API code. The problem is that the server is not accepting the new application's key, since that key is not in the allowed list. That other project works just fine. Guess why? Their key has been whitelisted for months. But it's totally my code. Yeah. Bloody brilliant. 🔅
Anyway, today we're discussing "Winning with Accountability," a 100 page book that boils down to "do what you say you'll do, by when you said you'd do it, and take responsibility if you don't." But a huge part that the boss is stressing is: provide the exact date, time, and timezone of when things will be completed by. I mean That's fine for sales calls and reports and such trivial busywork. But dev projects? Not so much.
And that's been my past three days!
Friggin joy.
