It seemed like a monday like no other. I got to work early, found a spot in front of the building, which meant a short walk to my office. Everything looked normal, you know like another monday, intense, surprising (i found out i liked mondays because there was always a surprise for us in store).
The day gradually started getting typical, lots of emergencies, everyone wanting their stuff for yesterday, everything a priority, its kind of like a FedEx building but worst a lot worst, but this is our day-to-day, it wouldn’t be work if it were any different.
Then there is Goober, but that is topic for another post…
From the three of us that compromise the team, my boss put one of us in charge, you know, at the helm of the team, (it wasn’t me thank God) and which is fine, because I have a pile of work big enough, for not wanting anything else. Then Altiris, our deployment server which in my opinion it”s a piece of “bantha poo doo”, but it’s what we have and God forbid we don’t use it, crashed and wasn’t fixed till 4pm. That means we didn’t really were able to do any Images. It’s funny because when someone has a problem where their computer is down and they can’t do any work, it’s a PRIORITY to do anything we can to help them, yet when Altiris went down, no one cared about it, it didn’t matter we weren’t productive, it was just not a priority.
Then I got hit in the face by a comet, (you all probably think I am on meds), it hit me, after reading an email, I actually forgot to do something and in the end it bit me in the buttola. I felt bad because I take a lot of pride working hard so everyone has their computers up and running, and forgetting to ship one out well it makes me feel like Santa Claus forgot a present for some kid in Cambodia. But between last week, and how I projected this week to go, it’s going to be like Arkham Asylum raised to the 10th power.
But like I said before, it is what it is, and it can’t be any different because it was (repeat after me) a case of the mondays.
I know… That last sentence was not original at all… but neither is my ringtone.
