Even better that was a pseudo vacation paid for by work.
Boss and I went to Hutchinson, KS (where that picture was taken) for a planned week of system updates. Me on the hardware and the boss on the software.
We arrived to a failed RAID array. Talk about your timing.
Anyway we got things bandaided and running by the end of the week but it needed some serious work still. So the boss told me on our way home to take the family with me and go back.
I spent all night every night for 5 days getting the infrastructure back up and running, while spending the daytime doing tourist things with the family. All event tickets paid for by the boss. -

That wouldn't have passed the laugh test, and we'd be on Altigen forever.

And yes, that's as ridiculous as it sounds.

I am secretly an Altigen system supporter and you have ruined me. You pesky kids.

During the very early stages of the project (a year ago when the CPU fan on our server broke and On High realized that yes, maybe it's time to look for something better), we looked into whatever new Altigen offerings there were. To have bought something directly from them (including subscribing to their hosted offering) would've meant we would've had to pay for me to be Altigen-trained in order to be eligible to receive support from them.

I vaguely recall conversations on the subject.

Another gem for today. LogMeIn Rescue chat session (yes, it's on my list to replace with ScreenConnect or something of the like).
[Me]: Please drag the snipping tool to the other monitor
[User]: i just closed it instead...or do you need it?
[Me]: I need the snipping tool open and on the monitor that has this chat box. -
