You're not the only one. This arrangement is not making me Better... It's making me Bitter. And they wonder where the attitude is coming from.
I feel this in my soul - like the first sip of coffee in the morning

@wrcombs ohh...you know I haven't had any coffee today, just noticed. BRB

That's the problem with not having coffee, you lose the ability to remember what's wrong.

Waiting for new Azure services to deploy, all freaking afternoon.
Makes me appreciate DigitalOcean and Linode even more.

@gjacobse I know. I have 8+ acres now to set up an antenna or 2!

Good morning everyone.

Wrapping up the week with a server outage. Yay.

Here I was annoyed by a "can you look at this AP" tonight when I thought I'd be headed home.
Hope it gets fixed quick!

Was trying to have morning coffee but the band that we saw last night we are trying to meet with this morning to see if we can book the for our new bar which has space for live music, many times bigger than the venue from last night, so I have to run across town to meet with them.
-
Have a local wedding to attend this afternoon. I know very few details so far.

I'll take a server outage all day over the thirty minute ticket beating... like really?? You expect a ticket to be closed the SAME DAY as it's opened... on EVERY Ticket??
Better hire more people.

Mistakes were made Friday when I left work - I didn't grab my laptop charger, but I grabbed my Laptop with a full battery.. After a weekend of helping with 10 minute calls / etc - I woke up to about 2" of snow - a van that doesn't drive well on dry streets- I'm not comfortable driving it 30 minutes across town in snow plus not being able to leave the neighborhood, and not enough gas in the "safer vehicle" from running around for everyone while they were out of town.
Opted to work from home today noticed laptop was down to 50% and thought I should plug it in... Oh well. Lesson learned I suppose - always grab the charger.

And people think I'm crazy when I talk about why I don't like employees using laptops in lieu of having an always there home office. This simple stuff that we all do.

Mistakes Happen, I'll just have to make the best of it or use more sick time.

Yup, that's specifically why I don't like relying on laptops, mistakes do happen and having employees depending on a single laptop, that has to travel (which is risky), and needs extra parts to go with it (also risky) instead of two desktops that don't move (or a desktop at one and a laptop at the other that rarely moves) doesn't take into account mistakes, theft, accidents, etc. Accepting that mistakes are normal, I think it makes laptops a lot less an ideal solution than people assume because most people treat the comparison as if both have no mistakes.
