lazyload425yIt's still in progress guys. I'm on my way to the office right now on a Sunday afternoon but of course I'd rather be on my bed watching Terrace House as I slowly fall asleep.

Quite frankly, if I was working overtime on a Saturday and the boss "demanded" anything, I'd pack up and go home. If he "demanded" I work on a Sunday as well, then I'd pack up, go home, and start job hunting.

Sounds like a job you don't need. Can you leave? I've had bosses like that before and regretted taking their bullshit.

You, sir, say "end of rant"
Why do I see the start of another rant?
I do estimate that rant will begin on Friday, as the boss' fuck-up will drain all the week to fix. -
This stinks of bad management. All expectations either internally or externally should be managed to work with a normal work week. Things should take 4 days to implement if they are started on a Friday.
Demanding things to be done just adds unnecessary pressure and stress.
We were already working overtime all Saturday. Boss came in the evening to demand some ridiculous shit. Me and senior dev agree it's ridiculous. It's already 1 am Sunday. I already explained to him why it doesn't make sense so he suggest more changes that doesn't even solve his initial problem. He asks me if I can do it by Monday morning. I can't. He suggested way too many breaking changes that I don't even agree with and I have to sleep like a normal human being.
I shit you not, he says he will do it himself. This guy barely even codes and has never seen a single line of code for this project. I didn't stop him. I went home and slept.
End of rant.
