@asgs I think he wouldn't rant in the first place if the bug was fixed this way
-
@asgs i will just have do it myself tonight
-
@iiii thats a different kind of nightmare 😅
-
@bioDan that's the reality for me and some of my colleagues
-
@iiii you do your best. When he returns its your turn to have a nice vacation
-
@bioDan something like that actually. Not as long though. And I have no idea of what to do besides, eating, sleeping and existing near a computer
-
@iiii sounds exactly like my kind of vacation. Its good to keep your options in the real world. So much going around and not everything has to be planned and detailed
-
@anux ofcourse i did, im not a masochist 😁
-
@bioDan cool cool cool

I feel your pain. Could it be they're too hesitant to occupy more of your time by asking for clarification?
I've been on the opposite side of this when I was in my very early days. Was too ashamed to question in fear I'd make it worse.
I eventually learnt that I won't touch any code unless I'm deadly certain why I'm being asked to change it
Fucking people, why the hell are you reading into things instead of asking for clarification if something is unclear?
So much time, sweat and tears wasted on miscommunication.
When I said, "there might be a problem in the way component X method Y was implemented", i didnt mean go refactor the entire code of the component. Why waste 2 days of work on unnecessary refactor that nobody wanted and breaks changes + the bug is not fully fixed 😤
