OP - when a ballistic missile is headed in your direction, how many buttons do you want the person with the knowledge to have to push? A lot of them?

Typical QC mistake. Someone needs to be caned.

There's no way what they are saying is true. Shift change caused accidental button press that sends this out? No "are you sure?" confirmation? No way to immediately send a "just kidding" follow up (took 30 minutes here)? No way

I think it was a real alert that they either shot down and don’t want to say or the system gave a false alarm and they don’t want to admit it’s a shitty system. No way it was an accident.

Hi everyone, I’m an architectural designer (from Europe) with 1.5 yrs experience. I’m working for a practice in San Francisco, full-time from the office, getting 25 an hour.
