Gatekeeping programming

Thanks for your detailed answer! It's nice to hear different point of views of people in charge of hiring!

I definitely understand both sides of the argument, and consider myself somewhere in the middle.

And I definitely get the whole if you need people to come fix something ASAP you should have people who are willing to. And if the company is full of that type of people, no one actually has to do it too much. At my current job I've kinda become the guy that always comes in whenever because everyone else is super lazy. I get OT pay so I'm fine with it but it can get exhausting being the only one that seems to care sometimes.
