Fellow engineer told a client that swapping a drive in an Nexsan E18 will require about an hour of downtime. I wish I was going to be there to see the look on his face when he finds out that swapping a drive is a five minute process and requires no downtime. Or he's going to stop the StorNext volumes to swap a drive. Which would be equally as fun to watch.

Our video conference meeting rooms are named after remote locations. I'm slightly amazed that it's not caused any confusion yet. "Let's set up a meeting with London" "Ok, where?" "Let's see... New York is not free, so let's go with Stockholm".

A Microsoft audit came in, less than one month after we took over running IT for a large local manufacturer. Something tells me the old crew didn't like being replaced, and judging by the lack of documentation about this horde of VMs that are "essential," I'd bet my hat there are fishy things to be found.

So I had to 'reimage' (we don't have images) my computer this morning due to Technical Difficulties (everything making GBS threads the bed), and because I'm an idiot that doesn't export to a network drive regularly I lost all the deployment scripting I'd spent the last three weeks doing. I'm so used to having everything sync to my butt that I didn't even think of it until after I'd reinstalled. On the plus side, I guess, I get to restart with a formalised process for testing and production rather than writing everything as it's required.

I found out our organization has about 5000 PCs (Including a buttload of thinclients) and about 4000 printers. Is that enough or should we get more? 2 printers per PC perhaps?

You might. I mean, what happens if one of the printers shits the bed? If you have 2 printers at every desk, then you have good redundancy.

You're not thinking grand enough. We need a printer framework foundation, so when you need to print a document you build a printer factory factory which then builds you a printer factory specialized in manufacturing the type of printer you need. That factory then constructs the ideal printer for your print job.

Wrath of the Bitch King posted:What we really need is a 3D Printer that prints Printers. I mentioned this before, but it bears repeating. When I started this job, I was touring the robotics lab and there was a hand-made 3D printer that a student had made hooked up to a raspberry pi. It was printing away and I asked what it was printing. "3D Printer parts so we can make another 3D printer" They were printing printers to print other printers.
