It goes dev->test->ops. They delivered the test version (correct) AND the dev (which just went to test, but hasn't actually started testing yet.) Install procedure unpacks the highest version number. Which was the dev. Which contains major database changes. So naturally, crashed and burned and confused the fuck out of everyone.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Uh, oops?
There's a firm sort of lockdown on dev->QA->production promotion at my current company for code, but I'm currently convinced that we're going to bump into data issues, since our QA box is being used by the production team for staging. It's a convoluted DMZ/firewall configuration, and we're having severe terminology issues.
It'll all get hashed out before we go live, I'm sure. I'm just impatient that I haven't managed to explain myself well enough to my boss yet to communicate where I think things are fuzzy.

eta: You just made me miss the unedited thread. But with my current sticky laptop keyboard, every thread is a bit unedited these days.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
One of the associates is pouting at me because I told him that the pre-2000 German administrative material he wanted a) wasn't online, b) would take a month or more to get, and c)would be in German.
Dude, seriously?

There's a certain amount of fluidity between the composition of the test and dev teams, though the actual systems they run on are discreet. This was a human error sort of thing, because the CM person acts both as the dev/test and test/ops liason. He'd just delivered dev to test late last week, and then went and delivered from test to ops, having forgotten latest in test was the untested dev version. We don't usually deliver a new build to test until after we've delivered to ops, but as today proves, it can happen.
And now I am going to work off some frustration in the pool.

Love the husbands and husbands kid. The husband who leans in (at leas I'm assuming he's a husband) looks JUST like a friend of mine, who's wife I must now send this to. Well, and to him. SECRET LIFE!!
I'm going to pretty up and go sing karaoke now. I love my new town. Except for the part where I haven't made plans with lisah and sarameg yet. But now that it's getting warmer and there aren't mountains of snow everywhere...
Any song suggestions? I always draw blanks when I get there.
