Why are coworkers who don't write any code in the codebase?
These are scripts that manage stuff on a few hundred user endpoints and a few servers. They were doing basically everything manually until I got here, and the only way I could get them on board with my slow introduction of automation is to let them see it. I have to ensure things don't get too long, complex, or hard to explain, or they start getting nervous.
