Arrogant or merely delusional?

I made several thousand code changes over a couple of hundred files and I wholeheartedly believed all my unit tests would just work. I hate it when my serene view of reality doesn't align with what the rest of the world considers reasonable.

I did it once for a name change. They wanted to rename an internal project, including filenames, strings, menus, resources, and everything else that had the old name. My project lead didn't think I'd get it to work on the first try. Glad I was able to prove him wrong.

I did that the day before yesterday, made changes in about 120 files and committed. A few minutes later someone behind me is banging their head on the table why the page isn't working. Looked like I missed a few .cshtml references. But I think I'm just confident of my skills :-\

Just blame the closest, innocent, programmer. Works for me.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

That's probably a better state than being optimistically delusional.

I did that once to change an upper case M to a lower case m in a product name, when the bastitches who requested the change were the ones who spelled it wrong in the first place.

believe in yourself: as long as it compiles - surely your code must be ok. next step is delegation - get a junior to fix the tests [results].

That's my normal state. However, I've come to realize that what the rest of the world considers reasonable is actually quite unreasonable.
