If this job doesn't kill me, I might live till I'm old - follow up...

        It’s been a week since the problem. I’m back on standby tomorrow morning from 09:00am.



        I’ve delved into the logs from the system and could not find a single errant instruction that could cause the problem we experienced last week. The system just decided to kill itself, it seems. This causes me more problems. Now I need to pinch out time from such a tight schedule to fault find the whole environment. Everyone is running off with the major Treasury application installation that’s on the 4th of March. Our manager is busy with the move of our data center from one provider to another and we are moving hardware from one storage array to another.


        Problems will abound. There just isn’t time to look at everything. Nothing is tested. But, management is happy. They just need someone else to point the finger at.

Just open your ears and listen to the people around you. It’s hard to find anyone upbeat about anything anymore and should you be upbeat, then they lay the beat down on you. For as sure as tomorrow will come, they will have a stupendous amount of reasons why you shouldn’t be happy. Now, I ask you: “Why the hell not?” Why shouldn’t you be happy? Ignore the stress and worries for the day, because you can always worry tomorrow. If tomorrow doesn’t come, then at least you didn’t waste your today on worrying about something that would not come. I know I am a worry wart. It seems to be expected. At work, everyone passes their worries on to you, then seem surprised when you just listen, nod wisely, and carry on. Why take on someone else’ burdens when you have so many of your own to carry. Grab your coat. Grab your hat. Leave ...
