Good Afternoon [employees],

I love the individualism of the people that work in this company, a lot of times the humor is nice too. I do however draw the line at the corruption of the public utilities in the office. Please remember that not everyone will appreciate toys in the water dispensers. Will the owner of a yellow plastic duck please come see me?

    One of the more bizarre emails I have been cc'ed:

    Hello [MySQL support tech],

    I may not be able to answer all of your Questions, but I will try my best. I own [website].com, and I administer the system which runs on an Xserve, but I know relatively little about MySql & PHP.

    I have an excellent Local Unix/Linux Consultant that I work with occasionally, when he is available. Unfortunately the changes Apple has made to the Unix system in Mac OSX Server software, create some difficulty for us, in that certain Directories are not where he expects them to be, Apples NetInfo Database Layer apparently also complicates things, and some other issues related to the differences in OS X Server. I am going to Carbon Copy him on this correspondence, and see if he might have a little time available to help me answer your questions, should my answers be wrong or incomplete.

    I know there was something he tried once to put a couple of characters into all of the PHP files, I think to make sure that Database connections where closed when a Query was finished (?), but I am not sure of exactly what this change was, that we tried. We did a search and replace in the hundreds of PHP files, but when we completed this the Home Page would no longer Load, and we ended up having to do a restore. I will ask him if he can E-mail me the details of what it was that we had tried.

    Hello [website owner],

    1. Error No.:1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'and chrStatus=1' at line

    Does this sort of error show up at the same time as the connection problems you describe below or does it happen as an independant problem at different times?

    I am not 100% sure of this but, I think the problem may start out as a 1064 Error, and then after a few more hours, may further deteriorate to the ""could not connect" problem, and then sometimes even further deteriorate to where I just get a Blue Background Page (sometimes with just the [website].com Logo in the upper left hand corner), and sometimes to the point where all I get is a blank White Page. Sometimes, in what I think is the early stage of the problem beginning, most but not all of the page loads, but the Browser Status Bar at the bottom of the page indicates something like "Loading "http://www.[website].com/" completed 23 of 24 items" , but the page never completes loading and just stalls.

    Can you extract the full SQL text of the query so that we can verify this?

    I have no idea if this is an SQL Query (possibly in the page or pages that deal with creating the Home Page?), contained in one of the Nearly 450 PHP files that the Programmers I used in India created for the site.

    Some of those who I have spoken with have mentioned that it might be a problem with the combination of the particular Version and/or Install of MySQL and PHP, on a Mac Server.

    If it would be of any help, I can send you all of these hundreds of php files, but I don't think you are going to want to go through all of that, unless you have some kind of tool that can automatically look at the files and validate the code.

    Are there any Log or error files that would be of help if I were to send them to you. If you give me the names of any that you would like, I can do this.

    It went on in this manner for quite awhile... I'll spare you the rest. But then it ended with:

    P.S. Over the past few months, it seems to me that pages are taking longer to download then they used to take. I do not know if this is related to this problem or possible to one of the Apple Software Updates, or something else.

    Is it just me or does "Best of the Email" seem 'off' grammatically?

    No worse than "Best of the Internets" :)

    Not true. Even "Best of the Emails" would have sounded better than "Best of the Email"

    The plural of Email is, Email, so there it is definitely more correct than 'Best of the Emails.' It seems odd to me to place an article before 'Email' however. Since we are not talking about a particular Email or set of Email, it is grammatically unnecessary though not necessarily incorrect. I probably would have just gone with "The Very Best of Email," as seems to have a better ring and places the emphasis on 'Best' as opposed to 'Email.' It is, after all, the 'Best' that we are concerned about, not just the 'Email' in general.

    I'd suggest the plural of email is either 'email' or 'emails' depending on whether one wanted to emphasize its collective or individual nature; thus 'quantity of email' versus 'number of emails' . . .

    Being in the same boat, I'd say that I wouldn't be ordered to stay to fix it. Heck, most at my comp wouldn't even get the call because they leave at 4:25, stop picking up phone at 4:20 and stop working to socialize at 4:00.

    "Any change ... network, software or hardware must be submitted to me for approval. This submission must include a definition of the problem...recommended solution...implications....other alternatives. I will approve the changes in writing."

    We solve the problem by following the rule to the letter. First it was twenty page reports on things like changing passwords and installing security updates. But that still didn't work.

    So I decided to follow the rule on a network troubleshooting process. I wrote a paper for each change that had to be made. When he asked me why I didn't write one paper for the whole process, I explained that there was no way I could know at the beginning what I would need to do.

    The rule quickly disappeared.

    Not quite. It's currently 24 days (since Oct 07), working up to 28 days (from Oct 08, I think).

    For most people this won't make a difference, as we're used to getting '4 weeks plus stats' ('stats' = 'statutory holidays' = 'bank holidays') as a minimum, which comes to 28 days, but some people were being stiffed by the previous ambiguous rule which said '20 days' (which was intended to mean 20 days plus bank holidays, but some employers decided to interpret as 20 days including bank holidays).

    Note that your employer has no requirement to give you bank holidays off, and if your employer DOES close down on bank holidays, but you don't happen to work that day (eg if you are part-time and work Tuesdays-Fridays) they have to give you extra days to make up for the fact you didn't have the bank holiday off.

    On a new client admin and processing system we've been building for the last 6 months, a lot of funny and not so funny test names have been used but as this is a test system, that fine right? Some of the login names were down right dodgy but that just gave those of us who used them to login a little chuckle every time.

    Then seperately a load of anonymised client data was loaded in for testing, however someone had forgotten to anonymize the email addresses. So when a couple of test clients set up new products and emails were sent out to actual clients advising them that they had opened products they'd never asked for, one client in particular didn't see the funny side of receiving an email from our favourate customer services user, a certain Ms Tess Tickle.

    Hmm, in the UK it is fairly standard in the IT / Software Engineering field to get at least 25 days holiday + 8 days Statutory Holidays off a year, so 33 days. Add on a couple of sickies from the 20 or so that you'll still be paid for, and you've got 7 weeks holiday.

    On the other hand, not so hot on the overtime here, so make sure you work your hours (usually 9 - 5 with a sum total of an hour off in-between for lunch, breaks, etc). Not that I begrudge working a bit more, to make up for any web surfing I do whilst I'm ruminating on a problem.

    It is a bit odd that professionals in the states only get a pittance of annual leave.

    I get 33 basic holiday days, plus bank holidays.

    Have no allotted hours, just projects have to be done in the well judged timescales.

    Can have as many sick days as I want as my company trusts me and hey if I get the work done so what!

    Can have 10 days extra paid holiday for special purposes such as moving home.

    I guess though in the UK things are booming in some areas of the IT market, if they treat me bad I will just leave for another company, possibly paying more with the same benefits.

    Still its getting to the point that I just can't take the leave as staying at home with the kids is not always a holiday! Need to earn serious cash to take 2 months of proper foreign vacation!

    The firm has made the decision to pay full-time exempt employees for unused Personal Time at the end of the calendar year, providing their work hours reflect an average of 45 hours worked per week over the course of the calendar year of 2008.
    I don't see what the WTF is here. They've got people who are putting in a lot of unpaid overtime and not using all of their allowed personal time off. They decide to pay these people for the unused personal time. It's not the greatest perk in the world, but at least it's something - which makes it more than a lot of companies offer.

    The company where I work, any vacation or personal time that isn't used in the year we earn it is lost. We don't get paid anything for unused time, and can't even carry it over to the following year. And while I personally don't put in that much overtime, there are a lot of people who do, either by choice or because when problems come up, (unpaid) overtime can be mandatory.

    You'd think that. It seems quite logical.

    My group's mostly in the US, although we have a few servers in other countries. Our software deals with just about every timezone.

    We didn't think we needed to bother with that patch, because of how our systems are set up, and how they work with other timezones. As such, we didn't patch them.

    After DST took affect, per the new schedule, our group received no DST-related trouble tickets. Most other groups in the company did. If a group had installed the patch, they received tickets from confused users who had not installed it. If a group had not installed the patch, they received tickets from users who had installed it. And, both sorts of groups had trouble tickets due to issues interoperating with other systems that had not taken the same patch activity. We were one of the two islands in the storm. (The other, of course, was Network - unseen, unfelt, pervading everything.)

    We did have to install it afterwards, however, due to management dictate; they didn't understand how we managed to do it.

    It was quite simple, however.

    1. All of our systems run on GMT. We do this so that the times reported in the system log are consistent. This makes it easier to correlate events between regions.

    2. We have JavaScript on our pages to do the actual local time calculations. If they have JavaScript enabled, the times we state agree with their computer clocks (except, of course, for however much their computer clock has drifted from NTP time.) If they do not have JavaScript enabled, the times we state are all marked 'GMT - enable JavaScript to convert to local time'.

    As such, the only users who might have complained were the few who were consciously aware that they didn't have the patch installed on their own machine, yet expected us to have it on ours. Out of over 100,000 people, this population size was one. And our manager doesn't put in trouble tickets to get us to work...

Either join one or the other or just stay out of our two party let us fight it out put up your own people and let the best man win. And all the things you said you hated the tea party are doing in this election. But you all are voting for them even when you know some of them are not fit for any office. Please what kind of integerity is that. How do you except anyone to take Indp. As a serious party. Now they are a spoiler for one of the major party. Put up your own people if you think you are a party. Look at the people who have won you had a governor who was so far out people made fun of him. Now he says President Obama did the right thing in trying to get this country on track. Chaffy is backing Obama so whatdoes this say the rest who are goig to bot for far right wing. You work for a man who run for president that everyone rejected.and that don't saying about you. You say one thing but do another. So don't tell me you know what good for this country. President Obama was hand a plate full and is solving our proplems. History tells us job comes last and he is putting more people back to work all the Time job growth each month. In two year president more jobs than Bush did in 8 years. And has plan on how to get more jobs. The republicans has no plans but Indp. Want to vote them. To me that don'take sense. I am a old woman I remember the the WPA camp is that what Indp. Want. It's not pretty. When you vote for these far right wing and they turn this country back 50 year what are you goig to tell old people like me who has fought all my life equality for all people you who vote for them are playing with fire mark my word. . You Indp. will be at fault . Every party does not all they set out to do. The health care I work my behind off to get this bill passed it not a perfect bill no major ever is The same things was said about Medicare and thru the year it was made better no one liked it when it was passed. They can make this bill much better so many people are dying because of no health care. They Changes will cross state line and the more people get in them the cheaper there policies. And people who have cancer and other element and can't get insurance now will be able to get it. How anyone would want to repell it is crazy to me. I read the bill people should read it it offer so much I am on Medicate but I care about people. We can't afford to repell this bill . You have to be Satan to think other wise.
