Me: *has problem, goes through hours worth of crazy complicated troubleshooting and tests to try and fix problem*

Literally anyone: have you tried the that super basic thing that you're supposed to do every time you start?

Me: oH GoDdAMMIT!!

Confusing my local and server versions of site files is practically my job description:') @Stuxnet

Coming from IT support my first question always is "Have you done these basic steps already?", even when I know you should know.

I do it to everyone else as well but for some reason I can't do it to myself @jonii

@opeala treat others the same you would want to be treated. I mean everyone has a stupid moment from time to time, can't deny that.

@opeala create two work spaces

One is always local

One is always production

The act of switching work spaces will keep you in the right context over time

In Windows or Linux.. Just the window work space like.. You know what I mean

You'll never have this problem again
