      That's right, I just got word. It's not quite the Lord of the Flies yet but getting close. It's true, the coffee machine is down and they don't know what to do. Amazon is attempting to get a backup coffee system into place but the SLA is more than 18 hours and things are getting desperate.

      All operations have been shifted to other sites while HQ attempts triage operations using a legacy drip brewer.

      Seems like an oversight to not have a second coffee dispenser with a redundant water line just in case.

      Total lack of redundancy here. No failover. No backups. There is going to be a port mortem on Monday.

            So it's been going (only the 10 oz button works now) but today I filled the reservoir and tried to make a cup... instead it flooded my counter......

              Where's the nearest coffee shop? Can you rent a barrister for the day until the outage is resolved?

                            and here I was digging up what is left of snow to melt and filter through my socks... Hey,.. it's the best I can do on such short notice. The panic has been bad - Even I have been without coffee for the day.

                                I heard it has to be two versions behind and specific point release or it won't work.

                                    See... you cant just switch over to Chrome. IE still has its uses.

                                          Netscape? No, needs Mosaic.
                                          Checked and unfortunately our hot spare is already in use in one of our other offices.
