Adding a feature to webapp...

Webapp relies on database in production server...

*adds feature to production webapp directly*

Every page: ERROR 500

Manager: what did you do???!!!! You MESSED UP the production, FIX IT NOW

*Use ctrl-z because manager doesn't like Version Control*

    You don't need to use version control, but you should have a testing environment so these things don't happen.

    with the manual pain in the ass deployments become having multiple environments needing the same chuncks of code, VCS comes naturally.

    You could still use git locally, can't you?

    Why the hell are you deploying straight to prod?
    Bloody shame on you!

    Also never let non-techies dictate tech. Never. Do not concede on this.

    @Root because.. I'm guilty of this despite my better wisdom.. But I'm also the one responsible to fix it if i do stuff up.

    Mind you the project I need to be prod only is old and dated and used internally only so not the end of the world If it goes down for 5-10 min
