Shitty Sunday part 2
June 28, 2010 Normal Stuff

So I had started my weekend slowdown I do on Sundays which means me hitting the bed earlier than normal. I roll over to catch the news so I won’t be clueless when I walk in to work. I turn on the TV and see black I change to CW and see black.. THIS IS NOT GOOD. I call into Master Control and get a fast busy that only means our switch is down. Sooo I start  getting dressed and dialing everyones cellphones that would be in the station to get the “uh yea we have no power” as I’m already doing 80 on the IDL. I get there and everyone is just sitting around in the dark chatting. I’m freaking out because I’ve done this one to many times with power outages and seen way to many PC’s toasted from the surge when it comes back. I got all of my critical stuff offline so when the power returned or surged I’d not lose anything. After about an hour of walking around a newsroom and the cave thats already darn as in my office area. We got juice then the fun started getting 32 computers up/logged in and in the right order. Everything in my office has a method to the maddness and has to be started in order or well the shit just doesn’t work. I got everything up and running by 6:30 and headed home and straight to bed. In fact I still had my socks on when I woke up at 1:20am.
