One of the reasons I joined a group practice with practice manager (other than myself) to worry about it. I have realised now why I was so "interested" in computing. Had to be to do it all myself in the country.

Came in on my off Saturday and started at 12h00PM - did network maintenance and backups to make sure server and all six workstations were as efficient and clean of bugs as possible - too about 3 hours Then started 3.6 update - took another 6 hours. Tried to fix the PKI error - no luck Then went home and tried to install 3.6 on home server where I restore backups - no luck - same error - gave up after 2 1/2 hours - sent e-mails to all who could help. Sunday morning I get advice from Peter M on how to fix PKI - back to work after church and only takes 30min to fix that issue and check. Monday Peter has to log in and fix our back-up system - HCN changed database names with the update and the scripts are broken. he spents ? how many hours trying to fix the home machine but we then realise that my harddrive needs to be uncompressed as the isntall does not work on a compressed drive. I get home about 9PM last night and do the uncompress - 3hours later I can install the update. Restore system still does not work due to reasons that are way beyond my IT skills/knowledge so Peter M will fix that. So lets add up: I spent 12h on my off weekend and another two hours last night - all unpaid. In addition I will owe my It support several hours of labour. So glad this computerised system saves time and money - NOT !!
