Diary - Aug 13 to Aug 19 2022

Sat Aug 13 2022

Sleep 1000 to 1600. (6 hours)

  • Spent last night doing DDO Fathom the Depths R10.

Sun Aug 14 2022

Sleep 0545 to 1300. (7-1/4 hours)

  • Logged into my MBP 2015. I increment the password number and it was a lot higher than I expected.

Mon Aug 15 2022

Sleep 0230 to 1030. (8 hours)

  • Drobo is reporting the bottom (5th) drive failed. I think this happened before and removing/replugging in drive fixed it. Will wait until it finishes redoing data protection.
  • Finally read the WARN Act notice. So the whole thing about two months notice and you remain on the payroll is a California law. Not that far from what my company would have done before (you would get vacation as pay and a couple months on the company healthcare) except not being laid off immediately is a bit more comforting.

Tue Aug 16 2022

Sleep 1230 to 1800. (5-1/2 hours)

  • Couldn't sleep. Started playing DDO Don't Drink the Water R10 at 0600 and finished at 1130 or so. Then I was tired enough to sleep.

Wed Aug 17 2022

Sleep 0730 to 1530. (8 hours)

  • Drobo finished rebalancing. Removed failed drive. Looked at it with Disk Utility (not Mac format so wouldn't mount without erasing). Doesn't have SMART (or Disk Utility doesn't read that info yet has that display) so can't tell if it has actually failed. Inserted drive back into Drobo. Drobo thinks it's good. Guess we'll see.

Thu Aug 18 2022

Sleep 0230 to 0830. (6 hours)

  • Director called me to see how I was doing. He really wants me to put together a résumé this week. Then he can review and we can update it and send it out to internal and external teams. He really does want me to land on my feet so I'll feel bad if I don't start working on getting a new job.

Fri Aug 19 2022

Sleep 0730 to 1330. (6 hours)

  • Mistake watching a Captain Marvel scene late last night because then I pretty much watched the rest of the movie then watched Avengers: Endgame, skipping a bit but still ended at 0700.
