Settled in the hotel

So after a day in the office and pizza night with the colleagues I settled at my hotel. 2 rooms + kitchen. I can't make up my mind which room to sleep in :(

The Panic Button

*ring*....*ring*...*ring*
- "Hello?"

It's 4am in the morning and like too many other nights something is down.

- "Our call-centers seams to be having issues can you have a look at them?"
- "Sure..."

I log in and the more I start looking the more things keep crashing, suddenly I crash. I press the PANIC button.

3.59am: I wake up sweaty and scared to death.

I need some vacation....

"For whatever liable reason now that I work for Sun, no our call-centers wasn't down, as a matter of fact nothing was down, I just had a nightmare about work and it was awefully realistic"

Right, I'm back in Sweden

So I've completely forgot to post about this, I'm back in Sweden for a month or so. Someone had to cover for everyone here while they went on vacation and who would be better than the guy who just moved from Sweden? Guess I wont get any vacation this year either...

Mobile dead..

So the reason for why I haven't blogged anything lately is because my mobile crashed when I landed in Sweden. The reparation takes 2 weeks...minimum :(

Since I came back from US I've been working all the time...not much interesting happening =/

Stepping on a nail


So I was demounting a pallet and was going to the door to close it, OUCH! A nail was pointing upswards and of course I stepped on it. People has been nagging me about getting a tetanus-shot but we'll see if I'll get it or not.

Moving 12 662 kilometers

As posted earlier I got my Visa approved for working in the United States, it hasn't been decided when yet, I'm still awaiting some papers and then I'll go for an interview at the American embassy in Stockholm, Sweden. We'll see how it goes from there.

Even later


Right about to go to sleep, and what happens, obviously some servers has crashed. I wonder if I can go to sleep now without getting disturb, have to be in Stockholm in 9 hours...

Working late again


Well, as usual I've been working late but I've accomplished a lot, especially on the Cisco front.
