I remember when I was working with .NET and I saw some web service code and I saw there was no try catches. They didn’t have a global catch in the asax either or anything. I just wrapped each call into a try catch and log.
I got the same treatment where my manager wanted to know what happened with the increase in errors. I told him what I did. My manager got another developer to go through my commits regardless. I was a bit upset at the lack of trust.
A manager that can’t read a simple try catch commit? Why am I surprised.

This is a massive assumption from the story that was provided. We don’t know that they didn’t discuss with the team and an explanation of “I added a log to errors that were already happening” shouldn’t result in lack of trust from the manager.
Reactive managers like that are a big problem in the industry.

I remember doing that as a junior because everyone in our codebase did it!
My new team lead came in and asked me why. I said it’s to reformat it due to the layer it was in. He said “…and what did you really accomplish with that?” All we did was bury our real error really well. It made me think about these things and to question convention more
I would normally put an if-statement before that to verify if IGNORANCE still equals BLISS
The second panel would be “No, I enabled error reporting. Those errors belong to just you.”

“My project” doesn’t exist in any team. It’s everyone’s project. A manager needs to have a long conversation with Pink Pants.
If you build your project at anything but highest error level,
clang -Walletc., you’re letting errors in, relying at best on coincidence to work the way you think it does.Commit it and don’t revert it!
You’d think, but there’s a lot of Pink Pants stans downthread.
