A parting thought before calling it a day:

Nothing so concentrates a man's mind as knowing he'll be hanged in the morning. The prospect of that sudden and imminent departure, when the trap door is kicked out and the plummet into the unknown begins, clarifies what is really important.
- Samuel Johnson

By the same token, nothing so concentrates the mind of a CIO or IT director as knowing tenure or compensation is directly tied to user satisfaction.
