Lets get one thing straight.
This is rarely ever the developer and more a business stakeholder forcing you to push the Friday deploy button.
I've had somebody in the business escalating to my team lead, head of development and CIO because i flat out refused to deploy something on Friday at 16h.
So no. This is not the developer making a hard choice. There should be somebody coercing or forcing him to push the deploy button.
I'll go along with a Friday deploy. But I ly after I have it in writing that the first time I'm opening the laptop is Monday at 8:00a. If Business is okay with that risk, tell me to mash the button.
Or – just a thought – you’re reasonably confident that the shit you wrote actually works.
Or - just a thought - don't deploy on fridays.
Sounds reasonable.
If you think anyone can 100% guarantee shit won't break, I have a bridge to sell you.
Oh, man, you seem to be new here. Welcome to software development!
Found the project manager.
Reasonably confident, yes. Fully confident, no.
If you sign here on this legal paper saying YOU will face consequences for a friday deploy then yes I will take you up on this
I just had a provider issue take a server down after we swapped into production.my code was fine, still didn't get to knock off on time.
Lmao, so you're not a programmer, are you?
