So, in the morning I just looked up what's up, and since nothing was up, I was working on my book.

At 11:30 started a long meeting. "Planning". It started with discussing weather, animals, whatever. Mike asked me, how about that sql query. What about it? Is there any documentation describing steps of running them in prod? Not answering this, Mike told me that the query is wrong, and he left a review in that PR. Okay-dokey, I'll take a look after the meeting.

He's a strange guy. Still trying to prove something, like his competence, or whatever. Go ahead, I don't mind. But I don't care.

The meeting consisted of listing a bunch of jira cases and voting regarding its complexity. You are supposed to guess the average; if you don't, Mike asks you, why do you think so. So I vote "medium" most of the time. I don't insist on my "opinion" (I have none, and I don't care.)

After that meeting I took another break. I need it, to evaporate that shit from my head.

Then I took a look at the query, what's wrong in this query?

delete from users where is_active=false and organization_id='56......(a long guid)';

It was supposed to delete 47 inactive users of that specific org.

Mike writes that deletion should be done on another server, in another database, and in another table. (Where's the Jira case?) Ok, np, I went to that server, to that database, and looked up that table. Sure it does not have the fields mentioned above. So, what exactly do we do? In particular, where did that org_id come from? Esteban wrote the original query.

What could I do, talk to Mike? Fuck you, Mike. I just added a comment in that PR.

BTW, Esteban is leaving soon. He's going to that company that was supposed to interview me. But I let them know my age, and that was it. They don't need people like me. I know, since I know some people there (one Indian asshole from Google, called Pedram, total lack of integrity... typical for Google, by the way.) But well, let Esteban have fun, at least they use ZIO.

Mike then wrote to me, how about a jira ops case that I was looking at last Wednesday? What about it? He probably meant that I was supposed to spend my Thursday, which I had spent over Atlantic, in business class, to connect to work vpn and browse through logs. Yeah, right. And Friday he gave me something even more urgent. Now he wanted me to inform Devon regarding what's up with that case. Nothing's up, and I informed Devon about it. Last week I didn't even know how to access production db.
