    Not sorry

    Raindrops on rooftops that drip through my systems,

    Continuous deployment has dropped all my routings

    Active Direct'ry not answering pings,

    These are a few of my scariest things.

    Worksheets in Excel reformatting data,

    Fixes o'erwritten with buggy new features,

    Windows deployed in a sequence of rings,

    These are a few of my scariest things.

    When the boss shows,

    When the phone rings,

    When the user's sad,

    I think of a few of my scariest things,

    And I need a driiiiiiiiiink,

    So bad.

      And that's as easy as herding cats is, and just as wise. :-)
