My day started off impacted by the Amazon outage, but I didn’t even know it. My work software called in sick today. I scrambled to get ready for my 7:30 am call and had ZERO information that I needed. I embraced the disaster fairly gracefully….I think.
I had no resumes to review, no clinic information, I couldn’t email, forward documents or do most of my work. It was quite stressful. I was several hours in before my team mates also started having issues.
Frustration led me to stop working and making a batch of rice crispy treats. I legitimately COULDN’T work.
I did my calls and then spent the evening playing catch up once things were resolved.
Basically this is how I think it happened….Amazon Web Services crapped the bed. It has it hooks embedded in several other online platforms and shut those down too. It was a domino effect that was felt across an elaborate. Audience.
Tomorrow will be better.
Progress was made on the barn. The contract company left muddy footprints on the side walk. I warned Paul before he got home so he could mentally prepare. He was furious. He is wound a little tight. It sucks but it isn’t the end of the world. It was a pain that the dogs were tracking in the mud. He got home from work and he washed it away.
