Total chaos (everybody loves it!)

Yesterday was a case where a server went to use 100% of the CPU for close to twenty minutes. In the end it turned out, that this happenend because of a currpeted database, which could fortunately be rebuilt.

Today there is chaos on the road, internet connectivity is dead countrywide, all kinds of things are going wrong as well, and the DNS server is having its usual case of ignorance.

At least during the chaos at the train station yesterday evening, I met a nice lady to chat with. We normally both get on and off at the Monte Vista station, but haven't actually talked much previously. Last night we finally got to the Vasco station after 21:00 and had to go on foto to the Monte Vista station to pick up her car. Walking and talking made the twenty to thirty minute trip a lot more interesting.

A friend of mine might be getting a trainer position at his company where he is then going to be in the day shift. From what I can see, management is yet again trying to do some cheap tricks, so that when somebody makes a mistake, then he gets blamed. This is typical management in most companies where always somebody gets blamed, as long as it isn't the person in management who wanted the job done, but didn't plan properly.
