@kubikpixel I had a stuborn boss who would do that. He started off as the tech guy in the corner with the company. He resented formal procedures. He was also an angry guy who would chew people out. Every once in a while he would change code directly in production AND do it late on Friday.
Monday morning all sorts of "automatic" processes would be crashed. It was worth it to overhear him getting chewed out himself.
It's not a joke! IT'S NOT A JOKE!!
Only if you plan to go on holidays the next week
@kubikpixel "If it hurts, do it more often"
I just pushed into production and testing should come back in ~1h, so there's plenty of time to react.
@kubikpixel hahahaha. Literally every place I've worked.
The best was a newspaper/publisher.
Not only did they push to production of their printing system on Fridays, but ran both weekend extra printing, and book printing, on Fridays, at 3pm.
If you could, pissing off early on Friday was the best idea
@kubikpixel Oh, you can, and if you must, do the push to prod early in the day. Alert people this is happening. This way, if there's an issue it's solved earlier and not at 4:30pm on said Friday.
Self-induced late day P1 issues are not freakin' cool.
Neither on Saturday or Sunday!
