space

just a nightmarish day today. pretty much everything which could go wrong has
done.

firstly two of our production servers ran out of disk space at the weekend. we
should have been notified weeks ago that disk space was running low but we
heard nothing until users started complaining that they could not save
documents. so most of the day was spent frantically moving databases to a new
server and trying to placate irate managers.

then two bugs turned up for an area which is looked after by someone who is not
in the office so muggins had to deal with them.

the network connections to our dev environment crashed this afternoon and
finally the delivery date for the bit of work i was meant to be doing today has
actually moved forward!

it’s just one of those days when you want to just dig a hole and hide until it
is all over. i am consoling myself that tomorrow can’t be any worse. apologies
for the moan but i’ve got it all off my chest now.
