I take the day off for a dr appointment cause I know shots make me tired and I won't work well after

But..... my coworker breaks a super important batch script by not reading a pop up note on a recent fix and (temporary) manually needed adjustment that pauses the script until you press a button

Then proceeds to skip all THREE places across the process to catch the problem caused by that not reading the note

And finally sees an issue AFTER final version is already sent out to clients....

So as soon as I get home I need to log on and rerun the process taking my time to read the check spots to make sure values and counts are correct and a new file is sent out

It feels great to take a chunk of my day off to cover a mistake of someone else's

Also should note I'm salaried. So I don't get paid extra for logging on and fixing this on my day off. Kinda sucks but whatever

    @MammaNeedHummus this right here.

    They break it, they fix it.
    Otherwise they will always know they can get away with it.

    As someone who's spent many an hour of free, personal time fixing shit that someone else borked, I really hope that you didn't log in and fix this issue. When people realise how much they can take advantage of you in this way, it can easily ruin your job.
