Going Bonsai!

Breath in. Breath out. Breath in. Breath out. No, I still want to kill someone!

Last night was a big switchover on my network. It meant bringing everything down for a couple of hours, talking to the States having them configure stuff from their end and bring everything up again. It is a big deal that has taken a lot of planning and consideration. I got a little side-tracked so I finished marginally later than expected. No big drama however, I got it working and that’s the most important thing.

After coming in very early this morning to finish off the setup, I then explained to everyone the impact of all the changes and please to have patience as there was only one of me to try and set everything and everyone up. That’s where it goes tits up…

Suddenly everyone feels that their shit is the most important thing on the planet. “I can’t get on the internet…” so I set them up and what’s the first thing they go to check? FOOTBALL! “I can’t print…” so I set them up and what the first thing they print? NOTHING! They just wanted to be ABLE to.

All of this going on and without airconditioning since it died 3 days ago but no one cares enough about that to get it repaired but yet everyone is demanding shit on the network.

I am tired after minimal sleep, I have a headache, I’m sweating like a sweaty bastard and have had a complete sense of humour failure! So I just declared to everyone, “F*ck you all, I’m going to my room, I will come back when the aircon is fixed”

C U Next Tuesday!

So now I’m in my room. I am feeling much cooler, my headache is going away and I’m about to have a snooze.
