I’m in our daily standup and it’s turned into exchanging fucked up sysadmin redundancy tales.
One place I worked lost a machine room. They’d fired people so fast that nobody remembered where the boxes were any more.
I knew, but they didn’t ask me. Oh well!
The cycle of IT binge and purge is eternal. Post your tales here.
It’s probably good to situate in time when thinking about these things. The twin towers were how a lot of companies became examples of what location redundancy really means. These days people are keeping that lesson well in mind, but back then, not so much.
