Servers never seem to care that it's Christmas... they decide to randomly crash just like any other day.


So mean, they just want to get into the Christmas spirit and sing come carols and blink some lights.

We get unlimited vacation days and work from home but since I'm relatively new here, I only took Mon/Tues (next week for New Years too). Also because nobody else I work with requested the whole week. But I can see that nobody is online in chat at all. May as well be vacation days until Jan 2.

They can blink the green lights all they want... it's the red and amber lights that we want to keep unlit

They were just getting in the Christmas spirit and wanted to mix some red lights in with the green. Because nothing says Christmas like a 50/50 mix of red and green lights on your storage array!

Wait a minute... you finally left the evil empire and got yourself a new job? Congratulations!

Heh yup, 18 years and still way under 6 figures. No surprise I was underpaid, so this offer was way too enticing to pass on. I don't have the security anymore, ironically, but worth the risk.

I worked yesterday and am in today, remotely. God it's laggy being logged in remotely (I'm on my new Surface Pro in my hotel room). It's laggy even at home on my desktop but it's even worse now. I turned down the resolution on my Surface to 1080p cause it was super high (as is normal for it) thinking maybe that could have something to do with it but I'm not it sure, it don't seem much different. Guess I'll just have to suffer with it.

I'm the only developer in; it's good there's an App Support guy in too though, cause I'm definitely not an expert with all of the issues the production system can raise. Thankfully it was quiet yesterday and there's a lot of Customer Service people out too.

Then flying back down state on Sunday for work Monday then off Tuesday, woot.

EDIT: Frickin Quick Reply on Tapatalk had that "Sent from" bullshit. Whoever decided that should be the default option should never be in charge of writing software again. That it's even a thing in the first place, much less an option, is beyond me.

Unfortunately, being at the arse-end of the project chain, I usually end up the victim of delays at the all the other phases. But of course things have to go live this year... sigh...

Rain today, so I stayed home. I like staying home, but the rain can fuck off. We exceeded the all time record for rainfall 2-3 rains ago. It's getting old...

It was a pretty rainy and dreary day when we left. A little odd for Michigan in December
