My work does not use fucking version control of any kind.... Today I had to look over some old report I did, which contained a few errors, the script to create this report I have since modified so I have no idea when this went wrong and the script now is also not functioning properly for this task...

I know it's my own fault but fucking goddammit why don't we just use git?!!?!

    Well why don’t you? It’s not like it’s a company only software...

    Don't have admin rights on my own PC and we need a private repo and stuff. Plus we do work on remote connection only accessing python...

    Private repo can be created for free kn github. Add you ssh key and off you go.
    Not sure if you use any ide that has a built in git client. But that should get you up and running.
    Don’t wait for a company to change. Be proactive. And if they don’t want to listen to you, it’s their lost.

    Yeah, I would complain loudly. I would use words like "negligent", "amatuer hour", and phrases like, "Git acts as a save button for the code. If something goes wrong we can always restore the save to a working point"

    You should probably schedule a 15 minute meeting with your boss and have a powerpoint on the benefits that git could bring to the company. Include scenarios that go into detail about cost saving and time saving. It's what I'd do.
