@IrisKalmia It's like 60F outside and I took today off for my Birthday, popped my window open and sitting on my bed just listening to the rain while I wake up <3

Today is a nice rainy day... my favorite kind of day. Thanks Nature :D

Today in the life of storm dragoness... simple things that I have done many times and wrote runbooks and docs for are not working... and it is making these two emergency installs take way too long and there is no way I will finish them before I go on pto for my birthday... Also... being oncall and constantly harassed by pager duty is not helping either.

So glad I will be on PTO tomorrow... even if I'm still oncall until 7am.

Fascism in the Workplace 

@mawr Aww.. that would have made it even more amusing... but damn. Some our IT owned hardware some similar stuff on it... Ops owned hardware does not..
Just a quick dump of the last year of Slog messages.

@mawr wow... I like that they did not even bother to update $company_name.

@IrisKalmia That sucks... I'm also the only (and senior) DCO and NOC person around after 3pm PST... which is half way through my shift.

@IrisKalmia yeah... it's also difficult to do my regular duties with RANDOM INTERRUPTION PHONE NOISES SCREECHHISSS

Please send real life extraction team, I need exfil asap.

Okay.... fine... I get it.. not getting back to sleep. Stupid Oncall... Stupid mom texts right after I roll over to sleep some more.... then bullshit pages for decommed hosts..

@mawr It was really fucking good... just... Mommy Backup Test.... ffffuuuuh

@mawr I finally got around to watching Chappie... holy fuck.

@Nephila@witches.town It would be nice to have a fork that got to take a nap instead of working on 4 hours of sleep. Merge and boom well rested storm dragoness.

Did I miss it? Oh..hmm Not sure this is terribly important! Currently low on sleep storm dragony thing. Transplanted from the right coast to the left one.
Strange facts: I read between 900-1200 pages of stuff a week... for fun I think. I wish I joking but I recently checked my kindle. In between that I pretend to be Ops Person and wing my way through it. Oh and somewhere there are games on a screen.. and tabletop stuff.

Also forking is cool. Would you like to know more?

@IrisKalmia 10 days of... with a 1 day and 2 day intermission.. worst part is the shit that ruined my sleep for today was a false alarm.

And it turns out it was a false alarm because someone forgot to disable alerts on a system they were working on....
