      Nuffink to do with me mateys. It's all SITA's fault. But it was quite funny getting the alerts in as system after system failed.

      Anyway, I haven't had a determination yet. I was being preemptively grumpy, getting some practise in.

          Absolutely not! You're upholding a fine tradition.

                  And if not, it was a lucky guess...

                    I did do a gig there once, where the database wot I wrote would require a primary key reset after 600 million seconds. Forgot to tell them about it.
                    Think it was about 20 years ago

                      I suspect someone tweaked that to kick the can down the road a bit.

                      A load of reports failed to work at the start of this month (reporting on January) because so many had been hard coded with an end date of 31 December 2019. I did a can kicking exercise and changed the date to 31 December 2021

                      Chances are, I'll end up back here and will have to fix it again...
