Pressure

Wow!!! ... did you ever face an angry mob at work??? ... I did today @_@ ... for the past 2 weeks I putted off upgrading the master server --- because from experience, I know that it does not usually go as planned.

Finally, I took the risk and plunge into it ... I started the upgrade late last night after everyone went home ... got kicked out of the building before I can finish ... I prayed that everything will be ok (at least I don’t want to rebuild the server from scratch) ... came into work early this morning ... and then everything went wrong from then on ... yikes!!! ... my stress level maxed out – all user are offline and the mob is getting bigger by the minute ... oh boy!!!

I was thinking ... God, you must really want to challenge me ... technically and my patience (to not tear the rest of me hair off =P ). For 7 hours straight without break ... me and my colleague (thank God for him) hacked this server till we squashed one huge bug ... there are more little bugs ... but at least everyone can get back to work. Yea!!! ... I can breathe again [one very longgggg deep breath] =)

Edit: when I try to publish this post ... blogger is broken ... cannot post for a long while.
