We'll circle back to that.

Senior SysAdmin here.
48 hours sounds about right. I usually get an email on day 1 of any holiday, and a panicked call on day 2 because something is down.
By day 3 all the gaps are covered by other admins after I point them at the existing documentation, that noone even looked at.

I had computers from a young age.
ASM coding on a Microbee running CP/M OS was where I started somewhere around 1986.
But I grew up as they did and have a deep understanding of how they work.
I'm a Senior SysAdmin/Systems Architect these days.
I still have a @hotmail.com email address that is just my name. No numbers or anything.

It's all about the phrasing.
Other things that suffer from this have been listed in memes.
"Butt dial." Vs. "Booty call"
And
"Forgive me father, for I have sinned." Vs. "Sorry Daddy, I've been a bad girl."
I managed to get my whole family to use Signal for the family chat with minimal coersion.
As an IT worker and Android user in a family of iPhones, I was happy to take the win.
Boss said stop coming in late.
I said I'm trying but my body hasn't cooperated with this start time for the last 30 years, I don't see why it will start now.
Boss said would starting and finishing later work?
For the last 5 years I've been starting at 9:30 and finishing at 6. And I haven't been late due to me as a person since.
Public transport problems happen occasionally, but it was that simple for them to get a full day out of me reliably.
Trinity used NMAP and scanned for real known SSH vulnerabilities when hacking the power station in Matrix Reloaded.
