Will it make my day? (hopefully not)

Tester: OK, it seems that everything is fixed. Merge dev to production, let's see what happens. Me: Yessss... (several minutes later)
tail -f catalina.out
Uh oh. Did you make your deploy today?
Did not need to. While the message that was displayed was not really helpful, it turned out that the EotD (Error of the Day) was no error at all. The user was denied access because of some weird settings and existing twice (!) in the database. You can't confuse my security functions with such simple tricks. The only change concerned the message. Instead of some weird 'There has been an error' stuff, we now have something about 'access denied because of user settings', but that must not be deployed right away.

My duck-and-cover tactic: My arrival at work precedes every else. I do the updates - and if they barf - I roll them back. No one's the wiser and the user-panic that would otherwise ensue is (usually!) averted.

And miss all the fun and the chance to wear your red cape (the one with the 'S') and rescue them?

If it is of my doing, a conical hat is more likely. And, of course, I still get to fix the damage.

The conical head hat is ok, but I always was a little suspicious of old men who run around in dresses. Edit: Conical head?

Ah - if it only were so painless as a conical head. In US, the conical hat (without foil) refers to this[^]
