Yea, so where’s the system administrator when you need one?!? Shared my support work time fiddling with our server at office.

Atlantis rolled over and died last week.. I’m now trying to raise if from the dead.. Sounds catchy eh?!? Being the support engineer, slightly a mentor and mostly a system administrator has really taken a toll on me today. Standing in a server room is never a fun thing to do.. Especially when the keyboard and the monitor is weirdly configured..

Oh well, it’s part of a very big learning process on how to setup a server for people to use. Learned something today also. I was struggling on how to set $JAVA_HOME globally. I’ve always set my desktop’s $JAVA_HOME at ~/.bashrc which is not a good method of doing so. Googling taught me to set it at /etc/bash.bashrc.

What else.. What else..

Well, here’s something that would put a smile on your face:

It’s been quite a month for me.

1. Fixing lights & fans in church.. Also includes mosquito feeding as the work went into the evening & night..
2. CC’s Wedding
3. Welcoming new staff
4. Halloween Party
5. Work work work!!!

But the most important one of all! He’s finally arrived!!

Found this at The Daily WTF. Since I’ve started supporting this product, this has gotta be the most hilarious stuff I’ve seen in a while.

Now is this a coincidence or a punt?!?

It’s been a long week.. Real long week.. Time seems to have taken a turn for me. Usually time pasts fast for me. Seems different though this week.. Time seems to have stopped for me.. Hmm

Work:

Pastime

High pressure spraying the walls to remove old paint from a mold infested walls.. Quite a tough job although I only did a small old wee part of the wall..

Hmm.. Nothing much other than that then fruitless pursuits..
