Load Balancing for Humans
Speaker: Vanessa White Tips, tricks, and tactics for keeping your sanity as a modern sysadmin. The era of the Mainframe and the shadowy sysadmin has passed, and we're entering an era where users are progressively more informed, inquisitive, and have more control over their devices. Balancing your workload between users, services, systems, coworkers, emergencies, and having a life outside of work can seem impossible at times. Over the course of my talk I'll be covering coping skills, tactics, and life lessons for taking what can be one of the most stressful jobs around and turning it into something enjoyable. YMMV, of course =) Presented at the 2014 MacAdmins Conference at Penn State. Slides and videos for this and other sessions are available at http://macadmins.psu.edu/conference/resources/
