I've been at work half an hour.

Is this virtuous, or stupid? I've already had my semi-crisis (interrupted yesterday by multiple crises) interrupted by another crisis.

This one is a very dumb one. A table is empty. It had data in the disk we shipped out. Either the access program is screwed up or (since that version has worked for me locally) the database is. If it is, since the one we shipped out was good, the load was misperformed.

Argh.

Look at it this way...

The better you get at dealing with these semi-crises, the worse a situation will have to be to qualify as a "true" crisis, and the better prepared you'll be to deal with it.

I'd still recommend a goodly supply of Zantac™ or similar...

This sounds like one of those "X will either make you stronger --- or kill you" arguments which have always worried me. :-)

Hehehe. Turns out my post was a lie, too. Everything was fine, except the guy installed a copy of software that didn't belong there, and they were running the wrong program - which was accessing, peculiarly enough, the wrong database. :P

Bah, humbug.
