I just love those "exceptions"! My grandfather died in May and I sent all my
clients an exact schedule of when I'd be unavailable (i.e., at the wake and
funeral service) and when I'd be at the hotel with Internet access.

I shouldn't have been surprised when I got an "urgent" message during the
wake from a client who needed my help "right now" and just absolutely
couldn't wait.

Turns out it was an issue with his server and I couldn't have done anything
anyway as I didn't have access to reboot it. He did have access, he
rebooted, everything was fine. Except me -- I was pissed.
