Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

Sleep... hmmmm. Checking my sleep log I am working off an average of about 6.5 hours a night. 7 is the best but I am mostly not hitting that right now for various reasons.

So, my IT hosed me and has ruined the rest of my month. Going to be a good one.

Let me guess: The supposedly backed up and transferred data was, in fact, neither backed up nor transferred.

As I pass my mid-50s, I get pretty regularly 8 hours of sleep a night, however, if I had my druthers, it'd easily be 9-10, every night. Of course, I also find I can't stay awake as long as I used to, and I'm ready to turn in around 9pm, but I force myself to stay up. I do like my sleep, though. And I'm still able to fall asleep in about 5 minutes, even with the lights on. Probably didn't help I worked an on-call/emergency response job for 25 years, 24/7/365.

No some kind of failure to upgrade AV has locked me out of our network till I get a new machine.

Antivirus: Both the boon and bane of our existence, in IT. Back in the days of WinNT4.0 we Command Antivirus grenading systems, the moment that SP2 got installed. Dozens of them.

Yeah I mean I know from just my personal computers that trying to remove an Antivirus can be like pulling teeth, but I wouldn't expect that much trouble from a corporate level/supported (do I expect too much?) version of a product like that.

We were in Safe Mode levels of 'uhh I cannot get this to work' and at that point the white flag was waved lol

Oh, the days when random clients didn't like the AV that we provided and installed the McAfee trial version. That couldn't be removed if you didn't do it before the trial ran out.

Yeah, so now my whole week has been ruined, and I get to (get to...) make up the time because of reasons. Glorious.

Also, missed the gym today.
