I'm in London!

[yesthattom]

So, what do you do when you join a company and find that the London office network is seriously FUBAR? You hop on an airplane and fix the shit out of it. Wow, only $600 for the ticket even though it was 24-hour notice. Luckily I'm staying the weekend. More reports soon, if I have time.

Oh, and all of this could have been prevented if the people that did the last major "upgrade" had either taken my "Introduction to Massive Upgrades and Changes" 1/2-day tutorial, or read Chapter 11 of my damn book. And dang it... its the chapter that opens with my favorite joke! They don't know what they're missing!

FWIW, I recently quoted the damn book in a security audit... unfortunately, I don't think they got it either...

it's a shame, innit?

BTW, YTT--Pam's topic has been provisionally approved--she needs to write her position paper, though.

let's just say that, Tom's and Christine's Really Good Tome notwithstanding, Pam believes there is still some room to add to the System Administration "Body of Knowledge."

If you have some time, go take a ride on the London Eye, especially if it's a clear day. You won't be sorry!

Oooh! Are you free to say hello at any point over (what's left of) the weekend?

Contact details in my memories...
