8.

8 days and counting until Zenith deletes all BDR cloud backups.

Apparently more than half the clients in the world have yet to be notified.

Since there are no more employees of Zenith Infotech, those clients won't be notified. Apparently they fired all of their support staff worldwide via an email 2 weeks ago.

The owner absconded with over 60 million dollars in cash.

Good times.

To quote a wise man, the suspense is killing me. I hope it will last. :suspense:

Of all the poo poo stories of poo poo things happening, for some reason this one bothers me the most.

Putting up with poo poo from others is one thing, but having your personal poo poo appropriated crosses a line.

I kinda wonder what has happened to Tony following Trauma's :yotj: out of there.

I can only pray he was frog marched out of the building when he broke something else and didn't have anyone left to shift blame to, but wish in one hand, crap in the other...

The supervisor was butt-buddies with the previous GM, which basically allowed him to get away with murder. The current GM hates the supevisors' guts, but hasn't fired him on the spot for <reasons> and old habits are hard to break.

At least, I think it was the GM... I know there was *someone* the supervisor used to go running to who is no longer there.

Languages are living, they mean what we agree that they mean, multitudes of exceptions, perfectly cromulent, etc etc etc.

It was interesting to have to explain to my parents what "please do the needful" meant, though.

By that very definition 'do the needful' is a bad phrase to use, then, because the vast majority of us agree that it is dumb and wrong.

The sense of adventure has mostly been replaced by the urge not to starve to death in a frozen hellhole because the people supplying you forgot that month.
If something hasn't been done very often in this day and age, there's probably a reason.

Speaking of Time Warner... They fixed whatever the gently caress was in my area that was making my internet absolute poo poo. Good! Problem is they're trying to charge me thirty bucks for a tech who came to our apartment, shrugged at our router, went "Problem's on our end, not yours", and then hosed off. Thirty bucks for less than ten minutes.

It's not our own router, though, it's one they gave us. So they're charging us for sending someone out to look at their router, when it was their poo poo messing everything up :arghfist::downs:
