So I’m taking this thread for a total test-drive and we’re going down this random ally...

I call our NOC “24x7x365”  I hear that in my head as “twenty-four (hour) - BY - Seven (days a week) - BY - 365 (days a year, indicating we don’t close on any holidays).

Is that really not a thing?  I swear I’ve been hearing it as a term of art in the industry for 20 years.    Google has 1.42m results for 24x7x365 - but 72mil for 24x7.

Should I change my website or what?

Thanks for indulging me :)

Your home page says that you have 24x7x365 support.

(Which is wrong, by the way.  It's either 24x7 or 24x365
or maybe 24x7x52 depending on what you're trying to express.
There is no such thing as 24x7x365.  But let's press on:)
