No dev environment, but making changes directly onto prod? Nice, that's livin' on the edge, that
Well yeah, I don't like it either but it's the way this site was originally coded (damn me). It's not too easy to move to a different server which was why I started to recode the whole shebang. That was proving too long winded though and we needed changes to be done immediately. I like to fly by the seat of my pants anyway and it makes it more exciting and tests my skills to get it right first time (which I didn't this time obviously lol)
