Mostly cloudy

Did you move to CloudOne? There is a push to move our currently local-hosted client/server (WinForms) application to CloudOne on both NIPRNET and SIPRNET. I keep saying it's going to be a "shitstorm" as well since I, as the lead dev, have the same sysadmin rights as you had on our production data (and use it all the time). With everything CloudOne-related having to go thru port 443 apparently, a lot of what we've done for 15+ years is going to go away. You may be a perfect case study for me... :)
NIPR is cloud2, and SIPR is cloud1. We haven't even gotten to the SIPR side yet. We have to RDP to a jump box, and then RDP from tehere to our dev boxes. we can do anything we want on the dev db server, but for test,staging, and prod, we get nothing. It's very locked down.

No company is perfect (especially government) and people make mistakes. You just threw your PM under a bus and complained about him TO A CUSTOMER! In my book that's an absolute no go. If you have problems, run it by your manager, if they don't listen and you're dissatisfied, leave. You're now just actively sabotaging the company from within. We have very strict employee laws in the Netherlands and in some cases it can be almost impossible to get one fired. I think this is one of the reasons for direct dismissal though. An absolute dick move, no matter how much you disagree with the policy :thumbsdown: [Edit] JSOP's customer was internal and everyone knew about the situation, making my reply not applicable in this case. Consider JSOP's reputation cleared, at least from this incident :laugh: [/Edit]
