@mary lost power. Oh the joys of living in NY.
I never lose power, so your experiences with losing power in NY have to be related to being in rural locations or lack of payment type issues.
When I was on NYSEG we lost power once in 3 years... now that I'm on a rural Coop we lose power at least once a month.
So a "I moved to a location that is more rural and now I'm dealing with rural issues". Makes complete sense to me.
I live in Brighton NY, and haven't lost power in a very long time, and the times that we "lose power" it's a power blip at most and things are back within seconds to minutes. Definitely not long a duration like @scottalanmiller has repeated as being the norm for NY.
I'm agreeing with you. NYSEG is actually a really good utility. I think it's the small Coops that dot the rural landscape that are the issue.

With NYSEG?
No, with a software vendor that likes to say that they don't run on Linux when obviously they do.

Playing with ansible, for possible deployment at work to administer our user workstations.

Going to be cert based right? SSH will need to be open. That's one of the reasons I went with SaltStack, along with better performance.

More KVM stuff. Got a bit confused on networking but think i've got a solution in place now that works

Uhm, people have to sleep at some point. You're not a 24/7/365 machine. Even when we're on call, between 10pm and 5:30am, we're off the hook. (Pun intended.)

Im human.Don't forget to bring up the "If I'm expected to answer my phone at all hours, then legally, I must be paid to work for all hours that I'm expected to be available. So why are you talking to me about this before getting legal matters handled through HR?"

The way it works , as it was explained to me : we get standby pay for a straight 8 hours, then every hour we work, we get paid 1.5 (as long as it's after 40)

There should be an option for us to sack the lot and start again on the ballot slips.
