Software engineers no longer able to quit jobs they hate or they get sued for destroying company value. Cher this all you want, first they came for the trade unionists…
- erik_seaberg 3y agoI get to say I’m not coming in tomorrow. I do not get to start a risky data migration and then abandon it; that’s unprofessional.
- ok_dad 3y agoWhat if you strike and the company sues you because the system has a bug and there was no one there to fix it? When is it acceptable for a software engineer working on software running 24/7 to strike? Let me know, because a ruling like this could be interpreted in many ways.
- erik_seaberg 3y agoI wouldn't deploy a risky change immediately before a strike, for the same reason I wouldn't do that and go on a road trip. If it's been in prod a day or two and we didn't see a need to roll it back, it's just part of the system now, and the replacement workers can deal with it.
