@QueenMorgana What kind of calls take that long? What is your job? 😱
-
@Lobidu @nin0x03 @linuxer4fun @projektaquarius @1989 @aaxa someone broke a 15TB production database on the 26 hour one.
Cert issues (external firewall company fucked up) on 16 hour call.
"deploy to all" vs "deploy to group" for a test deployment for the 12 hour one (uninstall on 180+ workstations).
This one is another cert issue (on customer side).
I'm a major incident manager. So when shit breaks, I fix it.
Since posting, I've been on 3 other calls. -
@QueenMorgana Damn. That sounds tiring 😱
-
@QueenMorgana Holy shit you are a really strong woman! You have my utmost respect!
Here have some warm fresh coffee to relax for a moment ❤️❤️❤️❤️☕☕❤️☕☕☕☕ -
@PonySlaystation Not just woman. I'd say just a strong person. I don't think I would last long in that job 😂
-
@aaxa @PonySlaystation there's a reason we have the highest turn over rate. And why I'm so upset that switching teams got delayed.
-
@PonySlaystation thank you for the coffee, ❤
-
@QueenMorgana I am so sorry holy shit. At my company that would be a fraud, waste, and abuse violation.
-
@projektaquarius we support 24x7 environments and are short staffed. Not much we can do. Most customers understand and work well with us, thankfully.
-
@QueenMorgana and I thought my job is hard.... I feel better now, though I feel very sorry for you and your team. You should check if there is a law in your country that forbids working shifts that long. There could be something you could use to protect yourself from this crap. It would be a deal breaker to me if my company would demand that long work hours.
We do have emergencies and stay late and sometimes overnight but that is rare, like once in 6 months... -
@sinisas the problem is, we need the time to go talk to labor commission. And that's not working out well.
-
@GodHatesMe it's easier to get boss fired. They'll just pull people from other teams who used to do the job
Is it just me or am I the only one who gets pissed if someone checks the expected result of a variable first?
...
That moment when the manager takes all the credit for your work
"We have another major incident spinning up. QueenMorgana, are you free?" NO, I'M FINISHING UP THE NOTES FROM MY LAST TWO CALLS THAT JUST ENDED, WHY DON'T YOU CALL IN, LAZY FUCKWAD.
Why is it so damn difficult for my boss to cover a call when we're all busy DOING ALL THE LITTLE POINTLESS SHIT HE GIVES UP. He had me follow up from my coworker's call yesterday, not seeing the logic in, IF IT WERE STILL A FUCKING ISSUE, THEY WOULD HAVE CALLED US BACK THIS MORNING.
So now, I have to sit on the line AGAIN and take notes for shit that's not even a major issue BECAUSE IT'S BEEN DOWN FOR A WEEK. IF IT'S DOWN THAT LONG AND YOU DON'T SUBMIT A TICKET TO ME OR CALL OUR MAJOR INCIDENT LINE, I DON'T GET PAID ENOUGH TO RESPOND LIKE IT'S AN EMERGENCY.
Also, fucking lazy asswipe of a "teammate" bitching about being on a call for over 8 hours, while the rest of us are on back to back calls. He's never been on a long call and has been here a year longer than I have. I've been on a 14 hour and a 16 hour, and my other teammate has handled a 26 hour call. 8 HOURS IS FUCKING NOTHING AND YOU WORK FROM HOME SO DON'T EVEN HAVE TO WEAR PANTS.
**spilled 3 cups of coffee this morning, and have an expensive maintenance on my car today, likely to explode on just about everyone**
