It's backup day today so I'm pissed off. Being the BOFH, however, does have it's advantages. I reassign null to be the tape device - it's so much more economical on my time as I don't have to keep getting up to change tapes every 5 minutes. And it speeds up backups too, so it can't be all bad can it? Of course not. A user rings "Do you know why the system is slow?" they ask "It's probably something to do with..." I look up today's excuse ".. clock speed" "Oh" (Not knowing what I'm talking about, they're satisfied) "Do you know when it will be fixed?" "Fixed? There's 275 users on your machine, and one of them is you. Don't be so selfish - logout now and give someone else a chance!"

@TheRegister..Episode 42 So I'm prancing around the office with my Santa hat on when the PFY walks in. "Uh... err... Compliments of the Season?" he says warily, knowing my views of the orgy of capitalism that the former orgy of laziness known as Christmas has become. "And the very best of the festive season to you my young assistant!" I cry heartily. "A Christmas mince pie?" "I..." the PFY says, reaching out his hand tentatively then withdrawing it. "Have no fear!" I blurt, sensing his discomfort. "These are the pure unadulterated shop-bought items, with no unexpected extras like iron filing centres or laxative icing." "Don't mind if I do!" the PFY says, throwing caution to the wind.

BOFH-ball
The playing area is a raquetball court with an open viewing gallery at the top-rear. The floor of the court is covered with 2x2 metal plates insulated from each other by a rubber grid. Each plate is connected to an electrical source. Plates are electified at random with varying voltages, ranging from a mild jolt to a mind-numbing power spike.
