I can't remember a longer one.
I am guessing plenty of is in order to soothe the throats made sore by excessive cussing.

I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone.
I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there
I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my friends, family and work.
I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activity anymore.
I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often.
I've been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm.
Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more often as I'm getting older.
One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart!
At my age I need all the stimuli I can get!
Sometimes I think I am in Vincible but life shows me I am not!
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

He was one of those rare really clever wordsmiths. His material doesn't get old.

He was clever and funny with the English language, but he could be a bit snarky.

I'm not naming names because this day in age, people get sued and consumers aren't allowed to tell the truth. But, I'm just curious to know, how many CPians have ever used a third party vendor that expected the customer to monitor their uptime to make sure they're compliant with the SLA?
I just heard this for the first time ever today, and well... that's a new one.

While I'm sure all vendors making claims for XYZ uptime are measuring it themselves, I wouldn't necessarily trust them to communicate back to their customers the fact that they perhaps aren't delivering on what they promise.
As such, I'm not entirely surprised vendors would tell their customers to get their own figures. After all, they (the customers) would be the ones making the complaints. And then the vendors can claim they were up, and the problem must've been on the customer's end...
|

|
|
Oh, I don't trust this vendor to accurately report that at all. But, to expect the customer to track it as opposed to them even bothering to pretend to... is a bit much. That's the point being made.

I would expect both sides would need to do it.
After all if a breech of contract occurs then how does the customer initiate it with assurance?
I know one company that does take compliance seriously on their end. They issue non-compliance reports before being asked. It is possible that this is because their clients are much bigger and thus would have many more lawyers. So proactive is probably best. Or maybe they just want to be seen as a better partner.

No but I did a Power plant using a uVax and BETA software and we helped them debug it.
I left the company not long after and every job we did we got sued because the PM had no idea what he was doing.
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

Ya know... I have to laugh... but I also have to cry. This just got all too real and seems all too familiar.

Some years ago I received an email from my internet provider saying that I had exceeded my monthly allowance. I asked them to provide the figures showing what I had used, and they told me I would have to do it myself, as they had no means to do it. I switched soon after that.

Sounds like you made the right move, man.
