Nous n’avons rien touché !

Chez Carboat, comme dans beaucoup d’entreprises, il n’y a pas de MEP le vendredi. Le principe étant d’avoir le temps de se retourner et d’éviter de pourrir le week-end des personnes d’astreintes et de nos internautes avec un site défaillant.

Vendredi 14h. Le monitoring est rouge…. un.e chargé de clientèle débarque, les clients appellent en masse. Les internautes ne peuvent plus déposer d’annonce.

Arf une MEP exceptionnelle a du être faite par une autre équipe. Mmmh selon l’historique des changements de prod, non. Changement clandestin qui n’aurait pas été tracé ? Non plus.

Socrates 2017

There were people from Canada, Poland and Germany for example. It was a bit awkward to speak English with French people, especially when there was no foreigners around. You never know if anyone will pass by and if people speak in French, he won’t have the opportunity to jump in. It would also be possible to switch back to English when someone comes, but then it would be like it’s an inconvenience when it happens. That’s not welcoming.

That’s why this post is written in English.

Unconference

The SoCraTes conference had no program : it was an open space format. The sessions are built in the morning during the first hour, based on the suggestions of the participants. Lire la suite →
