    I want to say this is staged…but I’ve seen some network nodes and server rooms that look like this. I am frightened.

    This would be the work of a bad Network Engineer…

    And that guy there, that’s the guy they hired to replace him. That’s probably a wiring diagram that he’s writing as he goes because the old guy had it all in his head before he kicked the bucket.

    Also, no, I don’t want this. I’m perfectly happy being remote network support professional. No silly wires to deal with.

    LOL This IS what I do, however my data center does not, and will NEVER look like this.

    I see some fiber and possibly some trunk cabling. That looks like an ISP or a gateway office (an datacenter that is the edge for two networks). This look like that hacked it together. Probably eastern Europe. The inspectors here would not allow it.

    hufnmouth: looking at his socks i’d say he’s american

    ColombianMonkey:
    you can tell he’s american by his socks, how do you do that, what key information do you have

    RSIxidor

    ColombianMonkey:
    OH MY GOD!

    This dude is wearing socks with sandals. LAME

    tiki god: by the type and colour of his socks, you can guess the manufacturer and know the tightness of the sock and then with the shape of his ankle you can estimate his weight and body structure. with the view of this picture to the actual person you can estimate the height of the person and with the height you can estimate better the weight since you estimated the ankle width and height. then carefully analyze body formation & weight on a nationwide estimate. and voila you got your answer.

    ankle width, and height of the person **

    ColombianMonkey:
    Also, all non-Americans wear leaf skirts and coconut bras.

    hufnmouth

    ColombianMonkey: What?! He’s rocking a faux-stache. Eastern European!

    Looks like they cleaned up a bit after I left…

    MonkeyHitman

    RSIxidor: more like hawaiians and people from the caribbean.
    hufnmouth: mexi-staches? he doesnt’t look like the age of 12-17

    nyoki

    ColombianMonkey: That’s some pretty sweet bullshit you just let out. 😉

    pedantic

    Fact: 70% of people on the interwebz are Network Engineers, and/or know everything there is to know about data centers.

    nyokki: thanks, i tried.
    pedantic: you mean 30%
