Nope. Vacation is vacation and if something goes tits upโฆ well, it's my colleagues problem.
This but unironically. They reviewed my code, and I explained my open tickets to colleagues and handed it over to them before taking time off. I can't be needed right now when I'm off
Oh, it was absolutely meant unionically on my part. We had a conversation last week about how some people even take their notebook with them on vacation. Colleague said he'd kick me if I ever got that idea.
Glad I'm at such a place.
I'm a network admin though and don't have many special things going on most of the time. So any handovers are white short usually.
Sure until you get back and find your colleague has identified the problem as something caused by you.
And? Hopefully he could fix my mess, otherwise I'll have to try my hand at it.
That's it.
for that should be documentation and remembering we are not machine yet. still human
I assumed they are praying for something to go wrong while they are on vacation and it's someone elses problem...
I'd say it depends how much you're willing to pay me.
Nah, fuck that. No one is willing to pay enough for me to care while on my vacation .
