Restart
I call a mulligan on the week. No more, try again.
My day TODAY: 2 voicemails before work is never a good sign. A/C in the computer room *exploded*. OK, the rooftop part did, not the part in the computer room, but still. I didn't even get video. I was going to work from home. Instead I was in the office playing a game of "with these fans and most everything shut off the temperature does _this_, so that means I can turn one more on and get these 15 people working again". I almost sent an entire department home, theirs was the last machine I powered on before overloading the cooling capacity of a box fan and a stand fan on the floor and a desk fan hanging from some telco wire from the ceiling (floor = blow cold in, from the ceiling = blow hot out). A/C repairs were done around noon... except they weren't and the guy left. More panic'd calls, put the fans back, try to get the overtemp lights to turn off rather than turning the machines off again. We were actually fixed around 3:30ish. Total accomplishments of the work day = none. Much beer has been had since.
And that was JUST MY day TODAY. I drove John back to work yesterday after 6:00 PM. Amanda's nose bled into her lamb tonight. etc. etc. etc.
No more. I call a mulligan. While I don't want tomorrow to be Monday, that's a better option to continuing this pile of $%!^.
