Shit, work, shit
Okay, so the database I need access to is down — again — and it’s Sunday, so though I can ask the guy responsible for it, I’m not sure it will be working until tomorrow, and — sigh. I am fucked, I think is the issue. Oh, I did it to myself a bit, but the thing is ALWAYS DOWN, so I started doing all the work that doesn’t require the database, and now I’m at the part that does, and . . . yeah. I don’t know what to do. I’ll call him — later, it’s not even 10 am yet (I already emailed, but I swear he ignores those) — and pray that something can be done today. I need to go in tomorrow: maybe the database works better if I’m on site, and then I can just try to be on site all week? Grumble. I even tried using a very irritating other utility, and it’s not working at all, so I can’t do that.
This is beyond frustrating. And worrisome.

If they can’t keep their database running that is their problem, IMHO. Bill them for your time whether the database is working or not.
