Karma

The committee chair for the BCC is learning just how technical the management of their domain is. He is trying to manage the domain like he does everything else, crisis control. In the latest debacle, he has attempted to transfer the domain 3 times now. Of course, the first two times failed.¹ And he is still under the delusion that all of the emails setup under the domain will magically transfer with it. In the words of my deceased father, “It don’t work like that son.”

After his 2nd failure, he finally swallowed his pride and checked w/me. Just in time too. I discovered he was about to totally fuck the domain up completely. I hate to sound like I’m gloating but I did tell him.² His attitude and lack of concern are now coming full circle to bite him in the ass. He was trying to use a 3rd party host to transfer between two other hosts. Anyone knowing enough about the net backbone can tell you what a nightmare that would have been. Meanwhile, the domain would have been down the whole time.

And, I just know, he’d rather eat a pot full of razors than admit he was wrong. I don’t expect to hear from him about the emails. I was kind enough to send him a snapshot of all the emails in use. This way I get to gloat (just a little) and my karma stays in tact.
