Fun from a datacenter

So here I am in day two of sitting in a datacenter in Tennessee.
Why am I here? Because of a dead server mirror. Now, you're all thinking "But John. It's a dead mirror. A retarded monkey can fix a dead mirror. You just slap in a new drive, rebuild it and bob's your uncle"
While this is true, it would appear that there is a retarded monkey convention, and there's none in the entire state of TN. It would also appear that the company they normally get service from has all of their retarded monkeys fully occupied. So, their service provider knows I live in KCMO, which is near TN.
I get a call on Thursday
( Cut so the baby jesus doesn't cry )
People...spend the money on the backups. I like getting this rate, but it's boring as hell, and it makes me hate you. If it runs your business or your life, BACK THE DAMNED THING UP.
