Got the shaft from management and my supervisor. Had an integrator merge two projects together and in the process we later found out a database got corrupted. This stopped one dial out alarm system from seeing alarms(Winn 911). A second system a Sensaphone2000 was still in operation. I am just a beginner learning and doing minor system changes and was blamed for the whole mess that happened. The Superintendant claimed that i left everyone in the dark about no alarm system call outs (my supervisor knew)and that i made unauthorized changes(my supervisor knew). I recieved a disciplinary letter for refusing to participate further in the programming process(i'm just a maint. worker)The integrator after spending two days with Rockwell support fixed the problem. I was in his words not a part of the problem. The big kicker is that they still want me to work on their stuff because they dont have to pay me 150.00 an hour and my letter claimed that i was responsible for them having to spend more money to fix my mistakes. I am not a fool and will not do another extra thing for them especially with computers if i'm going to be the fall guy. Needless to say the union is helping me with this.
I should have had some disclaimer signed as they know that i am not an expert or a professional programmer. I was just starting to really get into ladder logic and enjoyed it.
What are some of the things that i should have done to protect myself?
not looking for sympathy just answers.
