It's Friday at 5pm. You're all set to go home and relax then your monitoring dashboard goes like this....

More of a sysadmin humor, but there's not really a community for that, and from what I've seen here, there's plenty of overlap.

Note: This is just a drill, but it did happen last weekend.

"Well, see you Monday!"
- (Already halfway out the door) You got this, right? 👏 👈😎👈
- Found the senior dev.
  Seriously though, go enjoy your life. Even work emergencies are just work.
  
  California could be first state to give workers right to ignore boss’s after-hours calls, texts, emails
- God damn it, I hate this hacker crap!
Where's a 13 year old girl that knows Unix when you need her?
- I miss /r/ItsAUnixSystem
  
  I searched a few of the bigger instances, but didn't find one. It's been almost a year, so I figure if one was going to pop up, it would have by now.
  So, I made one: !its_a_unix_system@dubvee.org (https://dubvee.org/c/its_a_unix_system)
  Will try to get a few posts up soon.
Assign to maintenance. I don't fix fences.
- #NotMyJob
  Love it.
Alright. Which jackass pushed to prod on a Friday?
- In all the recent cases of this happening to me, it's networking that pushed to prod on a Friday. lol
  
  Last time it was the data team.
  "We'll just modify this Elastic Search template and not tell anyone. It'll be fine and no one will even notice ."
  Wrong, dipshits! Everything was not fine and lots of people noticed.
Noisey Gif
- Right? lol. I was tempted to edit in "gifs you can hear"
For some reason this specific graphic has always been one of my favorite parts of this movie.
Edit: I love the internet sometimes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94jIQm0YcCs
- Same. I'm a big fan of interactive schematic views in general. There's a few more (when the door locks go down and when Lex boots them back up) that are almost as cool.
“Find Nedry! Check the vending machines!”
This reminds me of how my manager would always book vacations to align with major rollouts.
- the number of games that insist on pushing out patches, expansions, hotfixes on Fridays …
  
  One of the mmo devs for a game I play did that. Game was unplayable for all of Christmas. They are never doing that again.
it's alright it's just a planned maintenance window nothing bad will happen
Saving this one for next time I'm on call for weekend monitoring.
That's why I don't have monitor dashboards 😎
I dunno but it involves Gluttonous amounts of whip cream
