What the last sysadmin left me.....

[bradbeckett]

A Linksys Router?

[t0mcioo]

meeh. Until You will mop floor in data center because no one think about fixing root before powering up 10 000 servers You do not need to worry about.

[PrimisAlpha]

Two words: Job Security

[yoiam69]

Wow how did you get in my office.

[jonbernal534]

Dude, that is just a mess.

[chrisishawtt]

Oh my god. I work for an IT consulting company, and about 99.999% of the time we walk into the server room on the consultation meeting and it looks just like this. It gets better, the new client is usually like, "This is why we need you."

[Bit9Inc]

wow...what a mess that is.

[nasonguy]

Man, those are high test ethernet cables, no need to worry about that router hanging there at the end. Those things could hold a car if needed.

[JakeRonYT]

Why is this in the 'Comedy' category, instead of, I don't know, 'Drama'?

[Hiagain69]

I thought I saw an old Xbox system in there for a moment. 

[rmadmin]

This really isn't that bad. Any seasoned sys admin has seen 100x worse. :)

[NPderive]

I feel for you, and I think you would understand how bad it can get in some situations... I've personally, for the past 3 years, have served as a sysadmin to a couple of different sites, both of which had server rooms and offices that looked as though three headed hounds from hell lived in it, on top of a tornado, on top of a pile of faeces. I couldn't take pictures, simply to avoid destroying the company's rep.

[onionofdeath]

Now we can see why you replaced him!

[caalexander08]

That is a disgrace of an IT closet. The best thing to do with a mess like that is schedule down time, rip it all out (after documenting everything of course), and starting from scratch.

[digivince]

I am going to close my laptop right now, and run screaming while I shit myself in panic and fear.

[geekbr]

fuck mass

[n3rd89]

Haha woh! I cant wait to be qualified

[D3w10n]

Mah, that is just a simple server with PPPOE or DailUp network control and multiply telephone line management, and also with data and backup server, and with master control computer... Peace of cake ^^

[D4GR3]

When i saw this i went "fawk me silly..." and for some reason i was picturing me, a weekend, knee deep in that fixing and working on it, strangely it sounding like a fun time for me.

[thetechall]

i would of ripped out all those cables and re-done it. and the guys head would be in the bin.

[SaturnOwner26]

heh, you want to talk about nasty, the mailroom I work in at the newspaper, the exhaust fans havent been cleaned since 1969!! you should see the size of the dust bunnies on that thing, they are HUGE

[DarkEgotrip]

i feel sorry for you. i know the feeling...

[coldironhands1]

looks like my network haha

[1f0und1]

wow I thought my closet was bad lol

[nettubarona]

Sometimes the easiest stuff are the most boring pain in the butt tasks, that you really don't wanna do, like organize the all cabling. Its easy, can take a lot of work, but it's really boring and a big time waster.

[87655788]

this looks way clean you dont want see were i work lolol anyway thx for video

[PorterhouseV]

thats kinda ugly, but at least its all in one f'n room. i mean, it could be spread across the whole site in some non documented fashion.

[1337Shockwav3]

bwuahahah ... gotta love those cable curtains!

But yeah ... this is pretty much how the server room at our "hoster" looked like as well. With various modems and hubs dingling at the backside of the rack.

[anonymousburn]

holy fuck id be pissed!

[stanni1992]

I'd love to be a sys admin, tidy all that up is fun to me... seriously.

[baricade1993]

[pcfxer]

Represent brother! And hey, that's only what? three cups of coffee and getting paid after-hours so you don't have downtime?
