Agreed, and I can’t wait to work someplace like that again.

We have a build agent with 9 versions of Node in it. It was 6 when I started here. Once a month I get to help someone figure out weird errors because one task has the wrong value in a drop down. It’s such busy work I can’t even.

When I run the CI system, shit gets done and people are expected to be able to recreate build failures by themselves. Give a man a tool, make it reliable, then expect him to use it.
