Get database value of model instance

AR instances have a method #attribute_in_database. Sometimes things don't make sense, someone has created a method with the same name as the column:

create table users (id int, email citext);

class User < ApplicationRecord
  def email
    Time.current.strftime("%A, %B %C")
  end
end

User.first.email
=> "Thursday, March 20"

But you actually wan the email:

User.first.attribute_in_database("email")
=> "admin@example.com"
