There must be a better way
I was up until 3:30 AM moving a client’s site to a new server. Then I was back at the computer at 7:30 AM to keep working out the problems.
Am I crazy? At 37 I must be too old for this. Who works until 3:30 in the morning for their clients? Lawyers? Doctors? I doubt the client would have worked so hard on it himself if he was doing the work.
Should I have quit at a decent time and just let the site be down for an extra 12 or 24 hours? I try to give a better level of service than that but maybe I am far enough along in my career to say no.
Regardless, this is why I much prefer building my own sites than managing other people’s sites. My own sites pay much more and I rarely have anything urgent enough to spend the night working on it.
