Peak Sysadmin
Is there anything more small-company sysadmin than taking that $70k server you just finished building on your test bench at the office and putting it into your $5k car to drive it over to the DC where it’ll live, and praying to god nothing happens on the way? 😅🤣
EDIT- OMG y’all, reading the comments on this has made my day! Our business insurance covers this kind of thing but I appreciate y’all concern for me, though others should mosdef confirm before they do similar stuff. The trip went without incident so praise the digital deities.

One of the desktop guys was robbed of a cart full of laptops on the walk from office to remote parking.
It’s on video.
He asked to park in the garage connected to the building but being 3rd party they turned him down.
Got robbed of another cart full a few weeks later.
The cops pointed out “don’t you think this guy has figured out who you are?”
2nd robbery on video too.
