Hard to describe.

One piece of shit, the one that I had deployed yesterday, was reported as not returning "enrollmentType". Hmm, interesting. But they did not say, which service they were talking about. It was not listed in Jira either. And the case was assigned to Esteban. So I wrote to him, all these questions.

Later Devon added his comment that it's about the other service, and pointed at the code where the field must be added. And Mike reassigned this shit to me. No problem, working on it. (Working basically consists of adding a test case.)

Then Mike was pushing another case. An endpoint "Write User Information". With a question regarding which service we are talking about (see above).

I looked up both. One has about 50 distinct record type that contain user info. Another one has about 30. So I added my questions, what exactly we are talking about. And whether, adding this information, we would also need to get this information? Delete it? Edit it? The customer did write that we cannot edit the user's first and last name. (I wonder why, can't a user marry? But, I guess, they'll have another record type and an endpoint for a married user that changed name. Or a record "user changed name". Sounds logical, right?

Then we had a "scrum postmortem" or something like that. I think I'm done coming up with suggestions of improvements. But they discussed, they asked questions, and at times I shared my opinion, verbally. Discussed documentation. It turned out the company does not have money for storing documentation on servers. Go figure, right!

Mike, I don't know, he complained about upper management being arrogant incompetent idiots. Well, I have to admit, compared to very many managers I encountered in my life, Mike is pretty advanced and competent. Just pretty inaccurate and unorganized.

That's it for today.
