I did it.

best thing that ever happened. now I get to wfh and I still refuse to answer calls from my boss after hours.

if it’s important have opsgenie call me, that way I can report I responded to 200 calls over the last year because some dumbass tripped over an Ethernet cable and my boss refuses to push the issue with infrastructure.

it’s a win win. I get yearly raises, he gets to keep his mouth shut and not “rock the boat”.
