I feel so weird, I haven't seen a Jenkins job in ages
(I work at a place that uses drone and other automation tools)

Last place I worked, Jenkins was am everyday thing. We tried moving off to using an automated git process, so it runs the build once we deploy, but that didn't work as well at that place vs straight running that maven Jenkins job

Now I work at a place where all of that stuff is automated and already running through git hooks and through other processes removing all of that stress

Best way to level up your Jenkins game is to use anything else. Don't.
