I've had success granting myself comp time when I've been up late or worked on the weekend to fix ops issues. Eg if I'm up at 2 or 3, I come in at noon or 1pm, and if it takes more than 2 hours, I just take a full day. The one boss who complained shut up when I told him he had 3 options: (1) deal, (2) remove ops responsibilities, (3) I quit on the spot. It's incredibly necessary to push the costs of sloppy code to be really apparent to management.
- lostcolony 10y agoWell said. I've done the same thing, and fought to make it standard department wide. I'm a dev, I -want- to do the right thing, but sometimes management insists on cutting corners. Fine, but the interest payments on that technical debt should be upon their head.
