It was when we were preparing data for warranty negotiation, my boss asked me to
prepare data past 3 years back but I didn’t agree because data should be data to
be used since last negotiation on 2018.
I told my boss about history of this topic and told her that the more sample we
had, the more   opportunity to win negotiation.
then I prepared 2018-2024 data and reviewed together, we found that by comparing
data between 2020-2024 and 2018-2024, warranty responsibility is much lower. We
both agreed to use 2018-2024 data for negotiation and the result as we expected,
we got the ratio as we proposed.

At Auctane, while my team was in the middle of the rewrite - for refund module,
The PMs wanted a new feature to the legacy system, I pushed back on the switch
as it would cause a lot of churn for my team. PM got my Manager involved and
convinced that this was a good idea to release new feature on monolith. My
manager aggreed for this swap, I was disaggreed with this decision but commited
to the change in direction.
I breifed my team with this change, and we could accomate the feature request
after negotiating the scope of the microsystem re-write.

will challenge it with respect and professionalis,If i were to face this
situation in future my approach would be open communication and understanging
each other perspectives and discussing potential solution to find common grounds
through which we can move towards a unified direction
