I worked some OT this evening. There was a change for my client at IBM and I’m one of the Windows Specialists (or becoming one, anyway) so I volunteered to do the maintenance tonight.

There was a miscommunication. I was told it would be 1130pm. What wasn’t specified was the time zone. The 1130pm was Eastern and not Mountain. Luckily, I woke up around 910pm and my phone sent a reminder for the 930pm meeting. Technology is wonderful.

Anyway, I logged in and started the maintenance. I’m not sure who wrote the instructions, but other than some names not being perfect, the instructions were great.

The server maintenance went perfectly and the testing (that I didn’t have to do) passed, so, all is well.

Although it was simple work, it’s satisfying when it goes flawlessly and the client thanks you. It’s a good feeling.

Now I’m watching a bit of TV until I get tired and then off to bed I go seeing as my next shift starts at 6am. That would be 6am Mountain Time.
