No tech support on holidays

As a special tribute to the Fourth of July, in the wee hours of the morning, I blew up my website! This leads me to the time proven addage that you get what you pay for. I pay $99 per year to host my site. They give me all kinds of bells and whistles and gee-whiz-bang utilities that I should be able to use. When they work. Their support team are the first I’ve seen in the technical field that work bankers hours. The clock strikes 5 and they are history. I imagine a whole bank of hosting servers with giant clock screen savers up on the monitors and fancy scripted programs eating up CPU cycles to set off alarms at 5:00:00 to get everyone out of the building, automatically shut off the lights and, just for fun, shut down random sites and application servers. As everyone drives home snickering, I’m sitting at home patting myself on the back for finding such a wonderful deal on my web hosting.
