Developing software to automate the manual work required to keep a SaaS offering highly available, scalable, and resilient to the vagaries of the Internet and frequent deploys.
It is the the requirement that I love to see and, truly, even though I do not consider myself a programmer, I do see value in using snippets, variables, DOS batch files, and Word macros as a means to automate manual work. That is the motivation behind writing and updating my Single Source Rant page. I want to un-complicate all aspects of the work I do with Disaster Recovery Documentation and Knowledge Management documentation - work smarter, not harder. It's why being MRDR [(Mister Disaster Recovery Documentation tm)] is who I am after 2334 days (6 years, 4 months, 3 weeks) in my current role. If my life goes according to my plan, I have worked 0.3195071868583162 or, rounded to the nearest 10th, 31.9 % of the 20 years I want to work here. Just to state it again, my plan is to work until Friday, March 28, 2036. I will be 66 years, 3 months, 3 weeks, 3 days old on that day and, according to my plan, I will work 115 days (3 months, 3 weeks, 3 days) past my 65th birthday in order to reach 20 years here. That's my plan anyways.
All that aside, this is the awesome job that I won't apply for.
