And to make it worse, it's literally across the country for me to sit in an ice bath... Wtf
-
@Grumm Thanks, due our laws, your resignation period scales with how long you are employed there. His last day is in ~3 weeks. He did try to discuss his last day but the company refused and he is forced to stay till the maximum of his resignation period legally.
-
@devRancid yes so that error is pretty much useless.
Since we do deliver also some hardware, the technicians need to go to the location of the customer and those colleagues don't have the backend tools to troubleshoot it. (cuz they havent been build)
They just open the console, point at the red lines and say that this is the error and say that this will be send to the DevOps for further investigation...
The customers are happy since it feels their problem will be solved but it probably won't be soon :D -

@PonySlaystation They are aware of the problem and are looking into it
-
@max19931 I think they did an action like "write a (positive) review, follow us on socials, ..." to receive % discount on sign up.
(anyway, the positive review did happen) -
Still hanging on?
-
And happened again \o/
-
@NeatNerdPrime I'm still surprised that this company still exists :D
And thanks! -
@NeatNerdPrime It's not the best. my amount of tasks have been low for a few months and atmosphere at my job has been degrading a lot.
I should be looking for a new job but it's a free paycheck for minimal work and manager is happy. -
number 9 might need some more clarification. Our app is aimed at other businesses that is maintained by their IT department.
The action that would be automatic reported is made on the platform created for their admins.... reported to the same admins that configures that platform.

@asgs yea, company of 30-40 people.
The front-end team consists of 2 devs (including me) and I have to do designs so yeah, it's not according to the best practices. -
10 minutes left in the meeting and we have yet to start with the designs \o/
-
@retoor Is it not called the "zesjescultuur"? Belgium has kinda the same problem
-
management has made the decision and they won't be replacing this profile...
I have very bad feelings since the person that will be responsible for this now... tried to access someone else localhost for over an hour till someone pointed it out... and he is a senior developer -
@Grumm Just a front-end team (2 people including me) that maintains a stable product and more maintenance needed updating a second product.
Job security for me is quite good till they do budget costs to save the company. It's a lot harder to fire me (not a consultant) than everyone else of the dev team (all consultants).
I'm really enjoying the drama & problems that this company have (see other rants) -
@wojtek322 The CEO was unbothered he leaves, the CFO already panicks and the project manager is yet unaware
-
@retoor he is good at his job. Nearly all his time is spend on fixing other peoples issues because they are incompetent. He is competent at his job.
The other person that is also kinda responsible for the servers is literally not following best practices. Like running untested python script to test load balance on production servers and not caring about the fallout (and accidentally DDOS'ing the servers). My soon-to-be-ex-colleague had to fix all these issues (and many more).
The previous CTO took his warnings very much to heart and the CTO took all the responsibilities for the delayed updates. Now, he is gone and the new manager (not new cto) already crumbles under the preasure of the CEO and my colleague does what is expected of him instead of following what is best for the company and getting fired for not fullfilling his tasks. -
@retoor that's the problem. The servers don't work flawlessly because he stopped caring after the CTO left the company and his warnings remains ignored. He has been looking for a new job for months and has been very nit picky for his new one.
They would even crash if you just slightly breeze on it -
@tosensei I feel so conflicted about this job.
I know I should look for a new one but i'm having so much joy watching this company fall apart. I love schadenfreude :D -
@Demolishun half of the team in the office (not remote workers) is actively seeking a new job so they don't really care.
-
@Demolishun My colleagues already got a name for it
-
username checks out
-
@tosensei okay, thanks. I think I saw that name before. I never expected devrant to have that much drama when I joined
-
@donkulator b2b telephone apps.
The main demography are banks & insurance firms. I don't think this is the way to go. -
@magicMirror It is pretty much 1 product that we sell with multiple different front-ends.
So yes, changes consistently but the team is small enough that it does change THAT quickly.
But turnover rate is high -
@tosensei What is his previous account name?
-
When I was 16 (legal age of drinking here), a few friends and I went to a pub. we were with 3 there and we all shared the same first name (also written the same way)*.
An older drunk guy started to talk to us and he asked for our names. First one said his name, all good. Second one said his name, he raised his eyebrow. I told him my name (again, the same as the first 2) and he called bullshit on that and started calling me Wojtek. Since that day, my friends and then my classmates called me Wojtek and I decided to embrace it as my username.
Since this name is common in Poland (never been to poland), it is taken on a lot of platforms so I added 322 because that is a meme in a very specific game.
* I want to add that we were all in the same class of 21 people. There were only 3 people in that school with that name. -
Take it easy, a lot of your peers might still be going to college and as long as your enjoying your job & life. No need to worry.
-
@tosensei I did send an email and they said the contract is correct. Anyway, I was pretty certain I would decline that contract anyway since there were other red flags....
But cmon, fraudulent advertising was a new one :D
