BOFH: Here he comes, all wide-eyed with the boundless optimism of youth. He is me, 30 years ago... what to do?

My mantra is "I just work here" when manglement makes a penny wise, pound foolish decision.

My one for this week is a decision that saved £15 a month. Six months later it's cost a week and counting worth of downtime on that particular system and we're about to spend around 30 times the amount saved to resolve the issue.

Bloody beancounters. Even higher management muttered about the decision being made on the basis of knowing the price of everything and the value of nothing and they made the decision!

I. JUST. WORK. HERE.

ARGGHHHHHH!
