Lets get one thing straight.
This is rarely ever the developer and more a business stakeholder forcing you to push the Friday deploy button.
I've had somebody in the business escalating to my team lead, head of development and CIO because i flat out refused to deploy something on Friday at 16h.
So no. This is not the developer making a hard choice. There should be somebody coercing or forcing him to push the deploy button.
I'll go along with a Friday deploy. But I ly after I have it in writing that the first time I'm opening the laptop is Monday at 8:00a. If Business is okay with that risk, tell me to mash the button.
Or – just a thought – you’re reasonably confident that the shit you wrote actually works.
Lmao, so you're not a programmer, are you?
Found the project manager.
Oh, man, you seem to be new here. Welcome to software development!
If you think anyone can 100% guarantee shit won't break, I have a bridge to sell you.
If you sign here on this legal paper saying YOU will face consequences for a friday deploy then yes I will take you up on this
I just had a provider issue take a server down after we swapped into production.my code was fine, still didn't get to knock off on time.
Reasonably confident, yes. Fully confident, no.
Or - just a thought - don't deploy on fridays.
Sounds reasonable.
