my favorite thing about IR is sitting in a call all day bc of a big incident and you cant leave your chair or eat food or go to the bathroom bc if you leave you will miss something and if you miss something you might get blamed for why something burned down so you just sit there

When you experience your first production outage

Hot take: Anyone dunking on Atlassian about the fact that an outage like this could happen should not be trusted near production environments because they're either lying or don't have the experience to know what they're talking about.

I'm starting to see incidents as essential for knowledge sharing. If you're not experiencing any, it then makes sense to periodically introduce controlled incidents to learn about your infrastructure and how it behaves.

This is a great post by Shubheksha and talking about the right way to talk about production issues.
Having a blameless culture makes it easier for new/junior engineers getting started with working on production systems, and makes everyone more comfortable working on things where they know they won't get the blame pointed at them.
I've found that, at work, diagnosing issues in our staging environment has given me such a great experience - it's been great to practice dealing with production-like issues in a non-production environment, as it gives you that time to breath, experiment and learn, as well as giving me much greater understanding of the end-to-end system.
