a junior dev asked me one time about our dev test environments. I chuckled before starting to look him dead in the eyes for 50 seconds straight without saying a single word, but my lips quivering. he had audible gasps as if to speak, but was ultimately speechless the entire time. he understood though. I could tell from the 1ml tear that formed only on his left eye. he pushed. prod crashed. we stayed late on a friday. management ordered pizza. I'm lonely and I love pizza. was all part of the plan.

You're a itchy trigger finger, and I swear to God I'll have your ssh keys on my desk if you push to production again. Now get out... and don't let the door hit you on your ass on your way out!

Then there's my boss who's like just merge it and we'll figure it out. I'm constantly asking him if we should maybe do some user testing, or for the love of God set up a staging environment.

I have to test the everloving fuck out of everything I do but cause I know it isn't going to get reviewed or tested by anyone but me. I guess that's why he keeps doing it, because very little actually breaks anything but it's definitely giving me more grey hair lol
