MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Created user-specific crontab file at /home/$user/crontab
- Crontab now persists through container restarts/refreshes
- Users can manage their own cron jobs by editing their crontab file
- Automatically loads user crontab on container start
- Updated DEV environment to use user crontab for MySQL backups
