At a job I had 4 years ago before leaving setup a server for automated backups and network shared folders. And documented everything about it, for whoever took maintenance of it. 4 years later they asked me help to solve a problem. I said: “that is described in the documentation I wrote 4 years ago.”
The reply was: “We had forgotten that documentation existed. It worked so well these last 4 years that we never read that doc and forgot it existed.”
Not sure if I should rant or rave.
@João Azevedo def. rave. I checked out of curiosity this morning and looks like I still have root access to all the servers at work I left in June :)
@muppeth ahahahahah
