For the last few days, backup jobs have been failing, and I don't know 
why. I just spent the morning poking around to try to find out why.

Hey, guess what? Several of the backup settings have magically changed 
themselves to something completely different values.

I wonder, who could have done that? Perhaps it was the fairies? Yes, 
that must be it. It was changed by faries.

I'm completely sure that none of this has anything at all to do with the 
new global backup procedure document that comes into effect on the 1st 
of December. (Notice today's date: 18 *November*. Hence, our current 
procedure document is still in force and must be followed to the letter.)

Obviously I have no proof of who changed those settings. But I have a 
pretty good idea.

I'm really angry right now. I've spent all this time doing workarounds 
to try to get the backups to work and writing all these extra log 
entries to record my actions, and the cause of the problem all along was 
some twat in America who ****ed around with MY backup settings without 
bothering to tell me! >:-[

I utterly fail to see how I can be held legally responsible for this 
stuff when I apparently have no control over it. How can I face a jail 
sentence for somebody else's actions? In what universe is that fair??


amount of crap? I'm expected to single-handedly run an entire department 
with no backup staff and having to beg for days off and losing valid 
holiday entitlement almost every year because I didn't get to actually 
use it, and be held legally responsible for all this lot, for slightly 
more than the legal minimum wage?

I'll tell you why I put up with it: I have no choice. Unfortunately 
nobody else is willing to even interview much less employ me. And I 
*need* money. So no matter how angry I am, no matter how miserably it 
makes me, I have to stay here.

And you know what? It really sucks. Big style.

I hate my life.
