Absolutely Slammed at work today.

I've barely been able to come up for air in what seems like a month now.

Example sign that some of us need to post about maintenance times...

Look at what happened to my non-production Fedora 31 VM. / is flooded with conf files.

Looks like a copy command gone wrong, lol.

That one belongs in the "I can't even" thread.

I fail to see anything wrong with this picture. Who needs a working fan anyway?... or a working projector...

I mean it's fine... right?

Tried my first cup of Death Wish coffee this morning. It's actually pretty good... If anybody hears a thunking sound in their attic, I am probably trying to float away somewhere... or I died and am now going to haunt you forever... <insert evil cackle here>.

Salt it with some 5 Hour Energy and I think you can read minds.

Ha ha ha... I've seen enough movies with mind readers to know that's not a power that I'd like.... Now give me the ability to move faster than a speeding bullet, that I might could handle.

You can power clean your apartment in 38 minutes

Just finished demoting a domain controller that is being retired.

We demoted, wiped, and reloaded 14 Domain Controllers on 2 domains this week.

Monday Morning Coffee, "Staff meeting" , and Email purge are all done\started.
Follow ups from the weekend, and planning the week;

Oh ; My team won 8/5 In our Dart Game yesterday (I play league) with the highest MPRs and everyone shot above their average My Sunday was great.

in light of that timing shit last week - you should turn in a time log daily - explaining how much time daily you spend doing different tasks... the question is wither or not to include things like bathroom breaks and water cooler talk, or pad those into one of the other non client billing times, assuming the discussion is in fact non billing.

The whole point being to show that it's your availability that they are paying for, not just the time you are working on billable projects/break-fixes.

Oh; you missed it?

I talked to his boss, and we came to the conclusion that I'm fine,He can't tell me dick about anything, and He seems to think he's in charge.
and if I ever need to work from home; Tell Supervisor to Fuck Off. and that His boss Said It's fine.

Nice to know you got some folks above your boss that have your back! ... but just in case, I'd get that in writing to CYA, lol.

Today I learned not to cock up the DNS server during business hours, and also the importance of having a 2nd DC/DNS in the event of such cockery.

You get it un-cocked yet?

Oh yeah. The network adapter reset itself to DHCP, so I was able to finally track down its new IP and fix it. But it was kinda stressful for a bit.

"Reset it self..." I'm sensing a story here... or maybe an unplanned Windows update, lol.

is there a way you can use 'Add Roles & Features' etc before stupid Server Manager finishes collecting its darn inventory data?
So tired of waiting ..........

Yes... don't install with a GUI, then use PowerShell to automate Add Roles & Features.

but what do I do with my mice????

Donate them.

Yes... Donate them and buy yourself a good trackball.

Just got my first bad review in my year and a half of employment.
So there's that.

apparently I broke stuff and no one told me; so I couldn't fix it.
I've been their only point of contact since they open and refused to talk to somebody else; and some small shit about "not being knowledgeable"
I've told them I'm not their contact and they need to use the help desk because I'm not always available .

Who did the review? I bet it was your direct supervisor, wasn't it?

no review has been done; just a negative customer review from previous work done with this site as I was buried in projects, calls, and other emergency issues.

Ah. Ah well. You have a valid excuse. Take it on the nose and continue working slave ^W^W job hunting.

I was hospitalized in early December for Coronavirus. I was on a ventilator for 3 days due to the swelling in my airway.

did you have a confirmed case?

IIRC Coronavirus is a family of viruses. The one we are talking about is the Wuhan Coronavirus.

AKA: The Kung Flu.

Put out about 3 fires this morning before I even had a second cup of coffee.

I feel like I'm fighting a forest fire with a drinking straw.

Just went to see the new Sonic movie with some friends of my kid. Surprisingly, it wasn't terrible.
