The past few days of work have been hellish.
We started the week with some security patches being pushed out to users, patches which caused machines to lock up and our network to run slowly. We had two mornings of heavy queing on account of this.
Add to the mix the onslaught of the Netsky virus. This additional problem was compounded by (let's face facts) stupid end users. The e-mail server was bogged down by not only normal mail and the mail generated by the virus itself, but by end users e-mailing each other basically asking "What did you send me? Why did you send me this?"
It's been a real case of PEBKAC.
Because of this, we're being asked to come in an hour early tomorrow. Thirty minutes definitely would not bother me. But when you're talking an hour, some comp. time would be appreciated. Unfortunately, there are no guarantees.
Nothing brightens my afternoon like being asked to work an extra hour with nothing in recompense for it.
