Assuming the details are correct, this should be considered a win by the junior dev. It only took a day to realize that this is a company he really, really doesn't want to try to learn his profession at.
- ajarmst 9y agoHe should get that laptop back to them IMMEDIATELY. These sound like exactly the sort of douches would try to charge him with theft. (Edit: Why is it not surprising they don't have a protocol in place for managing dismissing staff and, like, getting their stuff back?)
- watwut 9y agoWell, the customers database with important data just got nuked, so even if there is protocol, people who would normally do the steps have different things in mind. Laptop and such is least of their concerns.
- nashashmi 9y agoNobody hires you if things are perfect. They hire you because there's a problem. It might be a startup or a company just starting a tech sector. Either way they are in their infancy.
- ajarmst 9y agoThis isn't imperfection. This is beyond incompetence into some sort of Dunning-Kruger zen state. The story describes failures so egregious that the principals have no business taking money from customers.
