We had three hours of meeting today. It's weird, but I'm paid not for work, but for hours.
Experimentally, we have established that wen I was given an email address, the two first letters were capital (for some weird reason), and I followed it, not thinking much. That's where sbt failed. But If I put all small letters, builds run ok. Stupid, right?
Next obstacle: install a local Docker, a local Kafka, and, probably, a local database. No instructions. Those who could write instructions, they are long gon. I'm again in some kind of Pompeii.
Now they threw at me two cases in Jira. I investigated one of them. Brian M. was working on it about half a year. ago. It's a familiar name, except that we are not connected on LinkedIn. But we have 15 common connections. Seems like they hired me to replace him. The other Jira case is almost nothing, but I have to investigate. Well, and how can I test it? Half of the tests are failing, no explanations why.
Oh, whatever.
