[14:29] <pvl1> long asiget my Linux fix
[17:32] <adom> apparently today is "Engineers take the day off to go to the baseball game day"...
[17:34] <adom> only myself for the tech support department for our data center. and today is the day customers decided to send in all kinds of tickets about failing drives and faulty RAID controllers and attaching Debian install CDs because they don't want to pay for iLO license to mount ISO images remotely.
[17:34] <adom>  /rant
[17:42] <adom> anyone use centerim? im gonna give it a go one of these days.
[17:43] <cyberanger> adom: sounds like half the IT world I know is having similar days
[17:44] <adom> cyberanger: i feeel a bit accosted. :/
[17:45] <adom> is this not where said IT world workers are allowed to commiserate with their like-minded peers?
[17:45] <adom> (i've been reading some dragon-era fantasy books, and the speech and dialects rub off on me sometimes)
[17:46] <cyberanger> well, I do have that with everyone (that's what I was saying, rephrased, today seems like a lousy day for many like-minded friends, and it stinks)
[18:02] <adom> fair enough
[18:06] <cyberanger> adom: hope it goes better man
[18:32] <adom> cyberanger: thanks man, same to you
[18:34] <adom> im somewhat caught up for now. remaining tasks are switching out about 40 SSDs with a different brand, and modifying our system specs for a customer's private rack to match some modifications they made recently.
[18:34] <adom> one is a lot of footwork, and the other is administration. hopefully i can bang out the SSDs without much hassle, then finally sit down and relax and handle the administration changes for the private rack.
[18:35] <adom> i should note here, im not trying to initiate a geek-job-dick-measuring-contest here, just venting.
[18:36] <adom> thanks for listening ^_^
[18:39] <cyberanger> sounds like it's getting better then, my idea of fun (not kidding, sometimes swapping parts is just what a day needs, loud fans to drown out everything else)
[20:16] <adom> yeah sure i agree sometimes its nice to break the cycle and have a day where its just all mindless work and I put headphones on and listen to Spotify or an audiobook and zone out, then all of a sudden its mid-afternoon and the day has flown by.
