Having done my Krone certification, I would have been executed for doing that.

I (later) was offered a job at a massively boring place in Invercargill which shall remain nameless and one of the things they thought I'd love to do was sort an ^%$#@ like that out.

Supposedly while people were trying to use the network too.

Haha, I ran away.

Great looking at these pics though, we've all had a situation with that kind of thing, probably not nearly that bad though, :p

I had a full 48 port managed switch under a desk, someone's kid had unplugged most of the cables. :horrified

That was fun to get going.

782946 2009-06-17 08:50:00 If I was a CIO and my techs had a rack(s) looking like those, they'd get a written warning or the sack.

It's the worst kind of laziness/lack of forethought to let things get that bad.

Anyone who's had to try and trouble-shoot issues in that kind of mess will know how frustrating it can be! :mad:

Don't think they ever try to tidy it up:p

782948 2009-06-17 09:02:00 Wow. Imagine trying to find a single cable in the last one. Uhhh it's the yellow one! pine-o-cleen (2955)
782949 2009-06-17 11:24:00 I thought the last one had a natty, rustic, almost-thatched, look to it. R2x1 (4628)
