07/23/2003 Entry: "Friday can't come soon enough"

Friday can't come soon enough

Sometime between last night at 1800 and this morning at 0830 the world exploded and some kind soul put it back together again. Unfortunately, they screwed up when they reassembled our office. Everything was wrong this morning.
"I can't send e-mail!"
"I can't see the website!"
"I can't run your software!"
"I can't get my graphics card to work!"
Its been like that since Friday, when the new sales rep started working for us. Not that she's the cause of all my pressure, but between getting the sales database running over the network, getting customers running, and verifying that our access problems are caused by Qwest and not our network hardware, I am looking forward to this Friday. Why? It's System Administrator Appreciation Day. That's right, we have our own pseudo-holiday. Not that anyone remembers. It's sorta like Grandparent's Day: a holiday to make people feel better and a reason for Hallmark to make a few extra card sales. We even have our own song.
