When It Rains, It Pours

Posted By on February 4, 2007 at 8:22 pm

Sundays are usually very quiet nights for those of us in the network support business. Super Bowl Sunday especially so.
So, I’m working from home, hoping to enjoy the game while I wait for the inevitable nothing to happen.
Then, ten minutes before kickoff — ten stinking minutes — something happens. Something big, for a big customer.
So now I’m on a 5-vendor, 25-person conference call trying to fix a problem in Spain. We’re likely to go past midnight. No game for me.
I smell a European anti-fun conspiracy.

    No wonder I didn’t get a call from my #1 son!!!

  2. Russ,
    This all sounds very familiar. For some reason, many of our clients have problems first thing Monday mornings.
