Strange week at work

Work has been a bit strange this week. In a previous post, I mentioned how we finished our project and were thrilled at being "done". Well, we missed some functionality and were working on fixing/adding it. So we had a goal of finishing it at 8am Thursday. We almost got it just didn't have one part (the writing to the disk part) complete by then.

But here's the strange part, nearly everyday this week, just as the work day was near closing, we had a Production issue which needed to be fixed. Which is very unusual for us. We normally get about one issue a week and 3 out of 4 times, they are easy issues. This week we've had severs failing to start, data out of sync for 6 weeks but no one noticed and it must be fixed by Monday, and a support call this morning (but sent to me at 3PM today) from a customer who completely forgot that the error occurred this morning. Kinda shows how important that issue was, huh?
