[17:52] <specialtr4> TESTING TESTING
[17:53] <tsimonq2> Maybe it works here.
[17:53] <tsimonq2> !ops
[17:53] <specialtr4> STOP IT
[17:54] <specialtr4> I have work to do
[17:54] <specialtr4> and the ops dont want to be bothered
[17:54] <specialtr4> not on their Sunday
[17:54] <specialtr4> TESTING TESTING
[17:55] <specialtr4> I was hired by Ubuntu to do this job
[17:56] <specialtr4> I am a contractor
[17:56] <wxl> ubuntu is not a company
[17:56] <specialtr4> well, whoever they are, they hired me
[17:56] <specialtr4> to do this
[17:56] <wxl> you don't know who hired you?
[17:56] <specialtr4> I know Ubuntu did
[17:56] <wxl> but they're not a company, so i doubt it
[17:56] <specialtr4> I never said they were a company
[17:57] <specialtr4> but you all must leave
[17:57] <specialtr4> Ubuntu channels are closed right now for maintenance
[17:57] <wxl> i'm quite sure that no one involved at canonical or the ubuntu community asked you to get people to leave
[17:57] <specialtr4> Well, they are okay with me doing it if necessary to do my duties, which it is
[17:57] <wxl> there are irc ops, both within ubuntu and across the freenode network that could deal with such a need
[17:58] <wxl> so you're welcome to sit here and spin your wheels, but i'm pretty sure that's about all it's going to accomplish. i'm certainly not leaving.
[17:58] <specialtr4> I don't know. All I know is that I was asked to do this
[17:58] <specialtr4> Well, you can stay, but you cannot talk here right now
[17:58] <specialtr4> Only maintenance people are allowed to talk here right now
[17:58] <wxl> you have no authority to suggest that
[17:59] <specialtr4> Yes I do. I am maintenance
[17:59] <wxl> then tell me the name of the person that hired you
[17:59] <specialtr4> I dont have to tell you crap
[17:59] <wxl> then i don't have to leave or stop talking
[18:00] <specialtr4> you do have to stop talking
[18:00] <specialtr4> The presiding parties told me to come
[18:00] <wxl> then you should be able to identify them
[18:00] <wxl> it would be trivial to verify your claim
[18:01] <specialtr4> The office just sent me an email to do this for them
[18:01] <wxl> unless you're just making stuff up, which is a lot more likely
[18:01] <wxl> who specificaly
[18:01] <specialtr4> Think what you want
[18:01] <specialtr4> I dont know who uses the email
[18:01] <wxl> you can't read email headers?
[18:01] <specialtr4> It is Ubuntu's email
[18:01] <specialtr4> The email they have registered with me
[18:02] <wxl> no, the from header
[18:02] <specialtr4> Openstack
[18:02] <specialtr4> That is who it was
[18:02] <specialtr4> I dont need instructions from you
[18:02] <wxl> openstack is a piece of software, not a person
[18:02] <specialtr4> I have a job to do
[18:02] <wxl> well, then i don't need to leave
[18:02] <wxl> or stop talking
[18:02] <specialtr4> You need to let me do the job I am hired to do
[18:03] <wxl> ugh
