We are moving our data center from here to Texas…so tomorrow and this weekend = on call and having to come in from 7pm to who knows when. But hey, I get to wear jeans and whatever t-shirt I want…none of this jeans + dress shoes + collared shirt crap. Don’t know why, but I’m happy about that lol. Monday is going to SUCK since I’m going to bet a lot of stuff isn’t going to work very well due to the distance, etc. etc. I was originally supposed to drive to TX tomorrow with another coworker and deliver a truck load of servers (28hr drive - can’t stop for anything but gas and food), but they decided to pay a company to do it. ---

Be glad you can wear jeans during the day. Its dress slacks, dress shoes, belt, and button down here. And ties when we have high profile guests (county/state execs) coming in. ---
