When I have to termServ into a server to do something and it had gone down for some reason and rebooted, it asks me for a reboot code and a reason. So for the reboot code I put “ID10T” and for the reason I put “I don’t know!”. Wonder how may of our hardware people actually look at the reboot log at my antics.

Our code base also wants a reason every time we check in checked out code. When I change code just to test something and then change it back, I just check it in with the reason “Wouldn’t you like to know”. I could just undo the checkout but what fun would that be?

On behalf of my former troubleshooting peers, I officially hate you. Not despise you, mind, that’s reserved for the people who don’t put anything or who just mash the keyboard.

That point noted, that’s funny and would have drawn a laugh from me at during log-reading.
