Ugh... first time I've gotten more than 7 hours of sleep this week... and I feel... absolutely trashed.

Okay... welp.. you got me pegged Battletech the Game campaign random callsign generator..

First click.. "Thunder"

Fiiiiine..

Fuck people who don't follow request processes and ignore my on pto status on slack to ask me about projects I have never heard about that they need done asap but if they had followed our order process I'd of know about weeks ago

So my comp day for racking up 12 hours of OT during my oncall week including a 3am colo trip has turned to storm dragoness confusedly looking up shit and trying to figure out how to fit more installs at a location with no remote hands or lift in my week.

I'm not sure how I feel about this..because RMS is pretty out there... but fuck if this doesn't resonate with me a lot.

Just hear me out....

Look... we could go hunting for some other Goldilocks planet to seed and terraform... but there is one nearby. VENUS!

Put up a big ass network of solar collectors in orbit, start cooling it down. Crash some big comets into it for more water and 02... start terraforming!

Gravity is a pleasant .9G, thicker atmo and higher 02 content means flying is much easier!

Maybe a little terrain sculpting to add some more cool mountains..

Just because I'm a evening storm dragoness does not mean I want to go to the data center at 3am universe

Bleh... I want to work from home and be lazy today... but there are 3 boxes of shit on my desk that need to be packaged and shipped...so I have to show up long enough to do that... but then how to bail without seeming like a jerk...

I do have an audit for one of our datacenters on my project list... I guess I could get that started an use it as an excuse to leave the office... /Sam doing to much planning when she should just take a pto day.

This morning in the bay area..

Hail
Lightning
EARTHQUAKE....

Can I go back to bed?

but.. OMG YAY LIGHTNING (even if the thunder woke me up)

Sigh... today started pretty good... now it's gone down the shitter and not much I can do about it... plus... my face feels super fucking flush and hot and I don't know why x.x

just kinda... wtf... was someone setting up another box with the same kvm and realized they were on the wrong port.. fucked mine up and then went on to do thier thing?

I've been bashing my head against this stupid networking problem all day.. only to discover someone went and fucked up the ipmi config at somepoint after I set it up last week..

Cause you know... completely changing the vlan, IP and setting the fucking router IP to 0.0.0.0 would uh explain "ttl expired when I ping it."

To bad I can't tell who did it...

@crom Actually not sure what the correct procedure here is, I have a friend caught in the witches.town fallout that has been trying to contact you for an invite to awoo.space but at present it seems nothing from witches.town is getting out.

It's raining hard finally! YAY

Somehow this ate half my day... and I still managed to get everything I planned done and more... 1 hour of work left :(

I want to set this person fire... or like zap them to pile of ash and then have a tornado scatter those or something...

They are confused... have DC recheck cabling.. sorted out one they apparently knocked loose? wtf..

finally switch has no default route?!?! (that should never happen... someone fucked up big when the switch was deployed months ago)

Fixes all but on NIC... we are pulling out our hair to figure out why it doesn't work... fucking guy building the boxes had not yet configured the NIC.. but didn't tell anyone this...

Get all the info together... and try not scream at the person this is for because he failed to inform my team that both nics needed cabling for these systems. Which is why is an issue..

Open a ticket to get them cabled because this site is on the otherside of the country... finish my install... get home.. cabling done.. do switch config all good..

NOPE NOW CAN'T ACCESS VIA SSH.... wtf... nothing changed...

check everything... consult with senior networking person (it's now 10pm for them)

So tired.... today has been nightmarishly stressful.

While doing a P1 install someone asked me about getting another one at another site done today (I said yes because it wouldn't take too long and I expected my current install to only take about 2 hours which was true)

After racking annoying 1U boxes and cabling them... I get hit up for omg emergency customer impacting issue.. drop everything work on it.

I'm like 15 minutes from finishing this install at this point...

Grrrrr
