First Day of School

Posted on August 20, 2007 By Tom 1 Comment on First Day of School
EdTech, Miscellaneous

I smiled a lot more today.  There were kids, and most of them were smiling, too.

The little bit of sleep I got over the weekend was punctuated with nightmares.  I kept dreaming that all of my servers shut down on the first day of school.  It has happened before, so there was reason to worry.  Especially worrisome is our lunch point-of-sale system.  It’s notorious for not working the first couple of days, prompting long lines and short fuses.

None of that happened today.  All of the servers worked correctly, and even the lunch server worked without a hitch.  I’m just hoping I don’t get lulled into a false sense of security here, and everything comes crashing down tomorrow. I guess we’ll see.

    LOL See what paying a decent wage to the lunch room crowd gets you? ;D
