It was nothing to do with budget. The Dallas office is new so the guy there is sitting around scratching and the Bangalore one is jam pakced with people. We have a load of projects and clients so it was decided that from a resource point of view it was better to have these lads scratching their bollocks in a conference room in England than me spending time in either.
What harm I’d say I will be doing well to get 3 days worth of content out of what I have to handover
He mugged you off good and proper.
Business connecter issue
online since 6pm and will probably be online for another couple of hours. Have cooked and eaten my dinner, cleaned the kitchen and now watching a second episode of Parks and Recreations while the goons in server support do all the heavy lifting while I send out the odd alert to being on call:pint:

Still a fucking hindrance on a friday evening.
I have learned not to make plans on a weekend when on call and if you do make sure you have cover
One 0f these cunts stung me for £20 today. The cunt!
Finally got this back today. Only two more days left with them. One of the Indian lads ate a plate of chips with a spoon at lunch today:oops:
Must have been quite a shock to a Clareman used to people eating with their hands or else snout straight into the trough.
Did he have curry sauce with the chips?
An indian bogger from just outside Bangalore, who would have expected that!
My functional colleague is after making a monumental fuck up while running a background job. After bringing our biggest client to its knees. Looks like that is my weekend ruined
She is after having a panic attack and getting sick in the jacks.
She is vulnerable right now pal, arm around the shoulder time.
It will be me picking up the pieces and trying to populate a half dozen tables with the half a million records or so she wiped. Boss is running around the place like a blue arsed fly
On a bridge with DRM at the moment about doing a system restore but I think that will make an even bigger fuck of things

Is there a backup tape?
Yes, but that was a bag of piss of an idea. Have ops winding back their processes and anything they can’t wind back they will just hav to process manually and get on with it. Backup would make an awful fuck of things
Christ I have been on fire this afternoon:clap:

I lost one of my testers today. She is out for the next 6 weeks on sick leave with immediate effect. I learned this at 10am this morning and 5 hours later I have a complete grasp of all her workload. This workload I will delegate to some Indian young fella on Monday and let him no in no uncertain terms that his career depends on it.
I have a weekly update status call to attend now with a bunch of utter cunts in Seattle but we’re on track so they can go and fuck.
Roll on 5pm and a clear mind for the weekend ahead.
