oh yeah I just logged and rethrew, so it shouldn't have had any behavior change, but I could have broken something I make mistakes all the time.

The errors we were seeing in logs were like logic or application errors that we just didn't see before. My changes really shouldn't have caused.

I think that was the right approach, then again didn't you have through a pull request or at least a code review? Knowing that would give raise to so many "errors" you should have had some sort of communication beforehand.

I don't blame you, more the workflow and ironically the manager

Oh that was like years ago! Probably SVN, we on-boarded Git a little while after.

No pull requests, you just manually merged back then. It's definitely a workflow improvement we adopted later and we as a company and as an industry have gotten better.

lol, the thing was just that my manager asked me what I did and I told him. Him getting another dev to "fact-check" me after is what bothered me a bit. I am usually the type of look into issues rather than brush them off and I am the first to confess to a screw up. Which is why I was irked.
