riontelI will have to work at 3am on Wednesday because some idiots in VzW have maintenance windows for their lab test systems. My idea of a maintenance window is when fewest people will start screaming bloody murder if I reboot something. Lunch time, for instance. To add insult to injury, the only reason I will have to be awake at such an ungodly hour is because they are refusing to give me the shared secret key other than during the maintenance conference call. These same people spent two weeks trying to convince me that I have to change the IP of my endpoint because they are installing a new VPN box on their end. After I finally gave in (a colleague begged me to, for the sake of his project), they came back and admitted they were wrong. Not completely hopeless, I guess, at least they are capable of admitting their mistakes. But the fact that the network works as well as it does is pure miracle.
On an unrelated note, I can't take this weather any more. N's dad is going home to Kenya for a couple of months. It's summer in Kenya. I have lots of unused last year's vacation that needs to be used up soon... Might be a good time to visit Africa.
