[The standard disclaimer regarding the following being my opinion, and not that of anyone I work for, applies as it always has. Just need to make it more implicit this time…]
As some of y’all know, I work in the Financial Sector as a SysAdmin (aka computer nut ;) ). It’s – normally – a fun and challenging job, and one that even now I have great respect for (hence why I don’t talk about it much, to be safe regarding its ethics policy).
But last week was, in short, nuts – even for me. I’ve made comments earlier in the year regarding Reg-NMS, and the fact that it threw away all my old capacity calculations. Well, that’s happened yet again, three times, in three days. *sigh* Ah well.
I had planned to make several comments regarding the past few days news, but they’ve been going in so many circles its not worth it. Instead I leave this entry with more practical advice:
Sit down. Take a deep breath, and Relax. Convince yourself that today will be a good day, and then find a way to make it one. Rinse and Repeat… :)
–TSK
PS – Really, though, we need to sit back for a few days and see what falls out of the tree-shaking going on. So far I’ve seen nothing that makes me worry. Concerned? Yes. But not worried.
