My previous job was as a wiring guy. I figure this will be a good laugh for someone.

I should have taken pics of the old server closet. I walked in and my jaw hit the floor... there's a pic on the internet of a clusterfuck of wires with a sign taped to 'em that says "Do not touch these wires" or something to that effect, that's exactly what the closet looked like.

At the new place, however, they invested in a good rack and cable management system, triple-redundant internets (Fibre, cable, and wireless), and a goddamn huge HVAC unit to keep the whole mofo comfortable. New place is droolworthy now.

biggest problem with modern server rooms (and even old server rooms) to me was always how much goddamn noise everything makes.

I'd be a sysadmin right now somewhere if I could stand the constant jet sound that all server rooms seem to have, but I just can't.

When I was in high school I was a netadmin... had keys to the server rooms and everything. There was a couch in the closet in the math hall, I spent a lot of time in there. Nice and warm, lots of blinky lights, and nobody bothered you.

I worked at a local phone company for a few summers, doing things, and that's just insane. I mean, so much... work to make it... so... bad?

Jesus tapdancing christ.:eek:
I've seen some nasty tower sites with cables hanging loose and a total mess inside the systems building, but nothing like this. I'd just take a chainsaw and start over from square one with this place.
