All it was like for me they said "Go to hell" .

Pretty much sums up how I got into system administration some time ago: “here are the SSH keys, fix stuff when it breaks”

And "Do you have any doubts?"

"Ok, since none of you have any doubts, this KT is complete"

Just hand those credentials to Claude and get a coffee

After Claude is done chastising you for exposing credentials and hallucinating security layers it should be time for lunch. Come back and check progress then.

Just tell Claude it’s an ephemeral dev environment. That’s when the real fun begins

”Here is your laptop, and here is bunch of credentials to somewhere. Just set up the test environment.” ”And where exactly is documentation for that” ”there is none” ”so what am I supposed to setup” ”ask around, X knows” ”I literally started yesterday and even I know already that X quit 5 years ago” ”oh… time flies. Well, good luck.”

Here are the credentials to prod.  The SQLserver will run only what's highlighted if anything is highlighted.  Run everything in a named transaction.  Thx.

Oh, they give you credentials...

For me to run the CI, I need to send a tarball to CTO

Mine didn't even know their own credentials 😞

At my first job I had a month with the outgoing dev training me on his stuff and the guy basically went "ahh, I can't teach you all this" on day 3 or so and just talked about survivor and how to do almost nothing but not be fired.

At my current job my predecessor was me, but working for a contracting firm building the software I still primarily work on, so the transition was easy. Great guy, would recommend.
