Facebook expernced unprecedented technical challenges last night, culminating in a 10 minute period of unseen activity that caused suspension of services.
Bill Fewer, Facebook employee, can’t figure out how to do all of the stuff he was supposed to do.
Fred Lamar, diector of floor operation for Facebook said the problems originated with staff members who “forgot how to do it.”
“Our people forgot how to make things run. They didn’t remember which buttons to push and how to turn stuff on. It can happen when there’s a lot of stuff you gotta do,” Lamar said, speaking on condition of anonymity. “When our 3rd shift arrived they looked like they were okay but when they sat down to do the website things you do, they couldn’t because it was just too much. Many of them asked me but all I know how to do is do the e-mail but only mine.”
Order and functionalty were restored when the entire Facebook shift working at the time of the systems failure was forcibly evicted by a Sheriff’s tactical squad.
Buck Digrigorio, chairman of Facebook, told reporters at an early moorning press conference “A lot of times you forget how to do it when there are too many blinking lights and fake virus alerts and instant messages and it’s all happening at once.”
