It's Friday at 5pm. You're all set to go home and relax then your monitoring dashboard goes like this....

More of a sysadmin humor, but there's not really a community for that, and from what I've seen here, there's plenty of overlap.

Note: This is just a drill, but it did happen last weekend.

Found the senior dev.

Seriously though, go enjoy your life. Even work emergencies are just work.

In all the recent cases of this happening to me, it's networking that pushed to prod on a Friday. lol

"We'll just modify this Elastic Search template and not tell anyone. It'll be fine and no one will even notice ."

Wrong, dipshits! Everything was not fine and lots of people noticed.

It was a Saturday, but I was on-call when Networking shit the bed. One of the main trunk lines degraded and they took almost five minutes to switchover to backup 'cuz their automated degredation monitoring was on a five-minute interval. XD

Same. I'm a big fan of interactive schematic views in general. There's a few more (when the door locks go down and when Lex boots them back up) that are almost as cool.

This reminds me of how my manager would always book vacations to align with major rollouts.

One of the mmo devs for a game I play did that. Game was unplayable for all of Christmas. They are never doing that again.
