Dealing with YOLO Vibelord colleagues (lemmy.world)

So my manager today asked me if I could stay later when there's broken things in prod, and then today his star dream employee yolo'ed a full stack change into prod without review. It's fucking massive and implements new API endpoints, touches >20 files. Many of the diffs are too large to render in the browser.

It's almost comical, but something immediately broke.

Most of my day, I'm digging through code to identify bugs created from this shit, just to get a stealth merge midday.

I kind of don't know what to do.

I'd just talk to the guy, clarify HE needs to stay late not me, then log off. If he's nice about it I'd consider ataying but from your description, he's anything but.

What you gotta do in situations when someone is beingan asshole is spark a meeting with the higher ups so they can see the BS you deal with and how it's none of your business that prod was messed up.
