This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.
The focus of our discussions is based around things that affect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.
Ongoing discussions, FAQs & Resources (still under construction)

shit is falling apart at work, despite my warning that this is a shit time of the year to be attempting stuff. Everyone seems super stressed but I'm just sitting here making jokes in quiet cause if they ask me to engage all they are gonna get is "I fucking told you so, enjoy the consequences of your actions"
"This outcome was raised as an expectation early in discussions."
nah its not even gonna be that polite. I specifically said "we should not be doing this in a change freeze". They said "its not a change!". So far their "not a change" has killed 2 apps and resulted in a complete server restore.
If asked its literally gonna be a "I told you so. I warned you, i was condescended to. Fucking sucks to be you".
Did you cover your arse with logged messages? If so switch off and enjoy the ride (but please support and take care of anyone more junior who may be stressed out and played no part in this decision).
What's a change freeze?
No changes to client systems.
ah ok, thanks!
Welcome to the club! One of our 3 engineers has resigned. Good times.
are there frantic back room meetings with the c suite yet?
Yep. The new owners don't seem to either give a fuck or act at all.
I think you need to learn the words of this little gem (sometimes I just LOVE the YT algorithm) Battle Hymn of the Retail Worker at Xmas
ACCURATE!
