Comment thoughts from long ago (Score 1) 211

Some thoughts, having been a shift supervision in a DC long ago...

(a) don't have the emergency poweroff & off halon dump switch uncovered right by the DC room's light switch. Someday someone will *hit* it...

(b) where does the water go when the 5 inch chill water main fracture?

(c) who is the cleaning staff and do they know not to turn the "computers" off when they dust? Also why are they dusting unsupervised
in the data center anyway?

(d) Oh sure you have multiple telco feeds that service the building from that *sole* pole over there, which that dump truck just took out.

(e) And your procedure for the phone in fire alarm is what, wait for the fire dept to axe the entry door? This was my favourite. What's that chopping noise?

(f) Lastly, if the city bomb squad runs a trial, let the staff know ahead of time because that ensures they might be able to focus after the squad leaves...

Well likely the author got a dozen Zunes from microsoft for Christmas, and his family members are still like: Bo why you give me this shitty brown Zune? Why not one of those hip iPods?

Apple doesn't have to hand out *FREE* samples anymore, that sucks from his perspective...

Oh and Apple doesn't have to hand out MacBook Pros either to show how good os-x runs either...
