The real Microsoft lovers in IT

| ...where there's a big problem, you have a big problem, you are
| screwed because all you could get from the wild demand market of
| Microsoft's system administrators are the average ones, unless you
| really hit the jackpot, and this system administrators knows something
| else besides being a Microsoft system administrator.
|
| The average system administrator has a routine of troubleshooting
| problem solving, for example "web server with external Database
| server":
|
| 1. Restart the application/service (IIS)
| 2. Reboot
| 3. Reboot
| 4. Reboot
| 5. Call a colleague
| 6. The experienced colleague advice on a reboot, the guy tells him he
| already rebooted, and the "wise" colleague says something like "yeah I
| had this before, sometimes you need to reboot few times for it to
| work".
| 7. Reboot
| 8. Problem was fixed, 1'st guy tells colleague he is a guru, and
| happily goes home.
|
| Apparently the database was hammered from some stupid query ran by
| someone.
| Now first guy "learned" that 4 reboots solves a problem, and the
| real problem was never found.
