we have blackouts the day before a holiday as well, yet one of the important projects got director approval for an emergency change(wasn't an emergency) it started at 8am and they were still working on it when I left for the day. Luckily it was the DBAs that were fucking it up, not my team (windows)Question, did everyone in your it group suddenly realize on Friday that they had to get a months+ worth of work done by EOD yesterday due to change freeze? Cuz that's been my life all week.
