Mehness Replaced

Its amazing how one little email will replace all the mehness in the world. One little email that could be summed up in eight little words:

IT Auditors will be on site next week.

These are a totally different group of auditors from the ones we had in here a couple of weeks ago. Those were financial auditors who mainly focused on financial systems and polices. It just so happened that some of our IT systems fall into that category. This time the auditors will be solely focused on my department. Think of it as a rectal exam using the Hubble Telescope. Just relax.

As thus the joys of being a Domain Administrator, Site Security Administrator, and Backup Administrator come to fruition.

My personal goal of this audit is to produce a ream’s worth of paper or bury at least one auditor under documentation and policies. I’m not going to go against the “Don’t give them more than they ask for.” rule. I’m just going to give them a lot of what they ask for. Besides, I have to have a little fun during this process.
