Today is the last day of 2021. I’m on vacation, and I expect most of you are as well today. If you’re working, I hope it’s a light day and nothing breaks. At least, I hope it’s better than my first Dec 31 with SQL Server. After a month of exposure to the platform in 1991, I worked on Dec 31 to deploy a new application. I started at 5pm Dec 31, as most people were heading home from work, I was getting started.

I left the office, actually, the power plant, at 9 or 10 am on Jan 2. Needless to say, things didn’t go well. Hopefully, your day of work goes smoother.

Enjoy the end of the year, be safe and careful tonight, and I wish you a Happy New Year.
