It's only when you add a remote do the commits you've written locally go elsewhere.

I swear to god, someone on my chime call right now is taking the worst, the most virulent, making GBS threads-concrete-blocks-out-your-rear end dump I've ever heard. Or at least that what it sounds like from his live mic. Every couple of minutes there's this grunting, straining groan over comms and then silence. Of course it kills the conversation dead for a pause of a second or two while each of the 20-30 people on the call thinks "Is someone going to say something?" but no one does and the conversation resumes. I now have a purpose for being on this call: detect and mute the phantom groaner.

Today, I am the thing that's pissing me off. A .json import went wrong and caused 500 user's BYO phones app protection policies to get misapplied. It wasn't detected until I was well off shift, as most of those users are across the globe from me. Got resolved pretty quickly, but not a good look when Teams and Outlook suddenly stop working. Can I get some stories to help me re-enforce "If you've never caused an outage, it means they don't trust you with actual power" I keep repeating to myself? Post resolution is fine, my boss and my bosses boss have my back and aren't saying my name publicly, just a misconfiguration was made and we fixed it.

If you've never broken something like this, you're not doing work. That's my take on it. No need to be careless about it and you should have a post-mortem and try to find ways to avoid similar issues in the future, but it comes with the territory. If you don't have blameless post-mortems, now might be a good time to start. The alternative of people yelling at people and people fearing for their job just means no one does anything, because the only winning move is not to play, or people making mistakes and going to great lengths to cover it up. Neither is healthy, especially in a field like ours.

At one gig we had a desk and chair sitting next to and a little in front of a 42U cabinet, and I was banging on a dev box that had become unresponsive. Being lazy I reached around behind me to press the power switch and as I pressed it in, I realized the power switch felt different than I was expecting. With the button still pressed in with my finger I got out of my chair to look and realized I'd depressed the power switch for our Citrix server that typically had about 200 sessions on it. On these old Compaq Proliant servers, the power switch had this tiny raised enclosure around it to keep people from bumping the switch and inadvertently shutting it down, so with my finger still holding the button depressed, I searched around for something that I could wedge in to keep the button pressed in because once the button was released the server would power off and make 200 people really mad. I ended up finding a d6 in the coin pocket of my jeans that I was able to wedge/stuff into the switch enclosure to keep the button depressed. Right as I was feeling satisfied with myself, there was a *ping* and my die popped across the room and the server powered down. About sixty seconds later my phone started ringing... I have patched and rebooted the wrong servers in the middle of the day, taking down production web sites, I have unmounted the wrong database accidently, I have remotely killed a router by entering bad commands, killing the connection for an office full of people resulting in a stressful four-hour drive to the site, I have wiped the hard drive of my Director while performing an OS upgrade thinking he had backed up his data (because I told him to!) causing to lose 99% of the documents he had done over the last eight years, But my favorite was tripping the breaker (vacuum cleaner!  ) for our NOC and no one, not even building facilities, knew where the subpanel was.

Not my fuckup, but this reminds me of one of my favorite stories: Panicked call from the noc of one of my clients, an entire site is offline and they need me to go look at it. It's a remote location, about 3 hours drive one way. I get there, and the entire site is gone. Building was demolished, nothing but rubble. Spend the next two hours waiting around while the incident gets escalated and passed around until they finally tell me to go home. 8 hours billed at emergency rate.

The first remote hands call I took on a solo NOC shift I restarted an AD controller because it had a tape drive for backups, not the tape drive server which was at the bottom of the rack. That was a terrible day. When I was working as a Hostmaster, I accidentally put in an .co instead of .com for the tld and the way the DNS homebrew we ran was written, it dropped out of the cluster but after it pushed the change, so 4 of the 5 servers went offline before I realized it and fixed it. You're not alone

I've definitely taken down entire VOIP systems for an office due to a misconfig on the firewall (NAT change in the wrong place). Have helped a friend who accidentally deleted and entire company's AD structure (in the days where deleting an Exchange mailbox doesn't just take the mailbox!).

I managed to kill 50 DVRs by pushing out a bit of middleware onto machines running Windows XP. The company who wrote it apparently didn't believe in QA. And I was young and dumb enough not to test it on one system. What ever was wrong with their middleware it hosed up the OS to the point where it wouldn't boot.

My, like, second assignment as a professional programmer blew up a demo that my boss's boss was giving to the client, his boss, and his boss. The error entirely corrupted the data. It turned out the bug I introduced was the result of bad info from my boss, and I had receipts. But until I figured that out I wanted to die. My entire career up to that point was like two and a half weeks.
