Pissed off clients?

Australia: I love it. In the past 2 days we’ve been at a client’s whose entire System infrastructure had collapsed. A couple of servers in France, a couple in Gove and a few in Brisbane. The problem is very complex and the symptoms are highly unpredictable.
Okay, now if this would have happened in the Netherlands you’d be sitting in a dark room with some very pissed off managers and extremely pissed off IT personal, looking at you in a very pissed off way. They’d be ready to skin you alive. Nobody is happy and everyone is out to screw the other guy.
Here however everyone is smiling and joking. 600 draftsmen not being able to work, Bhaahaha. 800GB of drawing not available HIHIHIHIhiii, a gazillion dollars down the drain and deadlines busted to smithereens: Bwawahaaa.
This does not mean we’re not working hard and of course the pressure is on to resolve issues but it makes it so much easier.
