Good movie quote, recently brought to me by a colleague when discussing the virtues of accountability and owning the health, maintenance and restoration for systems we are responsible for. Broader topic was “monitoring.”

I don’t expect magic, in buckets or within the context of goodness. I do expect that if we are really empowered to engineer and manage systems, we need to ensure they are built correctly and alert us on state and utilization. Empowerment = given the funds we request to build and instrument correctly. Thus far, I haven’t recieved any resistance to properly teed-up requests.

Thus…a good quote: “I don’t wanna hear about no motherf***in’ ifs. All I wanna hear from your ass is, You ain’t got no problem, David (Jules). I’m on the motherf***er!”
