My colleague is so annoying! Whenever she found an issue with the site or app (as I newly handle this project. The guy before this wrote redundant code overload.)

she tags everyone in the company just to point out the issue, demanding Me to fix it. Like "it is your project yoi should know better "

I check the git. That's wasn't my code at all. Some guy (idk wtf )in 2024 wrote it.

    Yeah, i had coworkers too that celebrated if I made an issue while it wasn't me. Happens everywhere I guess. But it actually means that they're a fan of you.

    See https://devrant.com/rants/14662813/... for example :P

    "Dear X,

    Thanks for pointing this out! This seems like a really old issue, it's been around for N months, longer than I've been here, and you're the first to notice. Feel free to e-mail me directly about these in the future, with your help we're sure to catch any other hiding bugs before they could have any impact on the business as well. :)

    Best,"

    @lorentz people would actually be very happy with that e-mail. Their wet dream.

    @retoor that's the idea, there's nothing objectionable and it doesn't really leave room to continue the conversation, but it mentions every reason why tagging the company was stupid. It looks like a reply so I can claim that I replied to all by accident, but it''s actually written for the unwilling audience.
