It’s 3:30PM

Yes it’s 3:30PM and I’m still working on the same problem that was carried over from yesterday. It’s taken me almost this long just to convince them that it wasn’t the FTP client I was using that was causing the problem. I’ve only been using this FTP client for years with no problems up until yesterday, when they switched to a new proxy server, but surely the problem is on my end, right?

Just to be sure I downloaded another FTP app, and setup an HTML editor’s internal FTP program and they all had the same result. Try again and quit giving me a headache!

Later:4:47PM, it’s working! I can go home and enjoy my weekend now!
