The Secret Diary of an Internet Support Worker
Feb 22nd

Back to work. Its nice to have a day off, but good to be back.

We've had to close the newsgroups to non-customers. We were getting inundated with posts from other servers.
Some people are going to be mighty annoyed when they try and log in. Its not as if they should be there anyway.

I'm sure half of the posts we have to answer aren't from our customers. Shame though, I won't be able to use them from home anymore. I'm not using our service -its rubbish.

Went down to the basement again. I could hear strange noises. It was all locked up though, so I couldn't get in. I asked someone in the office about it, and they reckoned a fox may have got locked in... and not to worry, they'd ring the engineers who have the keys.

I think the engineers are here tomorrow, I'll sneak down and have a look while they're there. Poor fox, sounded kind of annoyed.
