This reminds me of things that people experience in war times: „Fighting together, being there for another, don’t let your brother down, this is hell but together we made/make it“
I mean this not in a sarcastic way. War is hell, brutal, bone crushing and miserable, but you will never make a deeper connection with people you fight with [0]
You sit there with your buddies, some food and fight the „enemy“ (api failure) together and win, exhausted but happy … together.
There is time in your youth, time for the „good old days“, BUT don’t make it a habit, this will cost you … your health, your private life, your time and it’s only job at a company that can change.
A company that can fire you in an instant.

- j7ake 4y agothe armies that fought and lost don’t really think back on those times with such rose tinted glasses. Especially since they probably suffered heavy losses. The dead also don’t get to tell their side of the story. Workers who grind at Startups that end up failing don’t get their stories published.
