DST
If you haven't already heard this weekend is when we change the clocks to one hour ahead. Thanks to our president it is 3 weeks earlier than usual.
Normally this day comes, we change the clocks and it goes...not a big deal. But this year...my God...there is so much chaos at the office. Why, you ask? Well, normally your PC knows when daylight savings is and makes the change to its clock automatically. But this year how is it supposed to know that Bush has changed the date? Enter patches! We have to patch all servers and softwares so that it knows what the new dates are. We even had to patch our Blackberries.
Its just amazing to me how this little change effects so much. I am not for or against this change, I wish we didn't have to deal with the back lash of it. Let me know if anyone else is going through what we are.

I hate this changing time...
its of no use...
I like the change. The days will seem longer because more daylight hours. Not seeing too much chaos at the office. It might be because our parent company is in Buffalo and they have to handle all of it.
Or you might be running your systems in GMT time. We are moving some of ours from Eastern Standard to GMT.
