The training program is da bomb!

I saw some video about this kind of stuff. I want to say it was John Oliver.

Anyway, these shipping companies basically hop on this Craigslist circa 2002 looking website and hire truckers off it. So, they likely did just get the cheapest guy.

Yeah. Since he was a subcontractor, he wanted all his scripts to be the same, no matter who the customer was.

I was like jesus christ, I'm lazy too and want to automate everything, but edit your stupid scripts to use env vars.

We resolved it by making him use pipeline vars for his scripts. Like we told him to do in the beginning.

He fought it because he wanted his scripts the same for all projects. Including hard coded usernames and passwords. So, it was mostly his fault.

The production database gets down-synced to the lower environments on demand, so they can test on actual production datasets. That would require us to manually remake this user account every time a dev down-syncs the database to a lower environment.

The customer is paranoid, as the project is their public facing website, so they want testing against the actual prod environment.

We don't mange the SSO, as that is controlled by the customer. The only local (application specific) account is this account for testing.

He had to do admin functionality regression tests before prod releases to make sure nothing broke.

The system uses SSO for logins for everything else.

He is a subcontractor who was using scripts for all his projects. I told him he really needs to use env vars for creds.

He was a subcontractor, so technically, he's not our employee.

I bubbled it up the chain on our side, and it hasn't happened since.

It was an admin account to do regression testing for the admin interface and functions before prod releases.

I had my guys enable/disable the account during the testing pipeline so people can't login anymore.

To be fair, spies like Maria Butina weren't even that attractive. She was pretty mid, but had all the NRA guys simping.

Oh. My. God. Becky, look at her butt!

I only use butterfly flaps that move magnetic needles next to my HDD.
