It's a historical fact that Americans hate our walls because they envy us and want them to be torn down.

We weren't keen on Berlin, you got us there.

I've had the same experience with (IT) architects. One of which just booked a 30 minute meeting with me early next week to tell me all about how he's about to lift and shift all of our poo poo into the cloud instead of replacing our aging virtualisation rig. They even claim we'll save money doing this. I wish I was joking.

I need more alcohol :suicide:

I know you already know what the outcome is but we're a year out from that same work and have been clawing back servers from the cloud for a few months now.

What's next, an IT doctor?

When I was working a triage ticket queue several jobs back on both the low end and the high end of escalations we'd joke that we were internet EMS and then internet ER doctors to people as a way to explain our job. Valor already stolen.

I've got a similar stack of engineering textbooks that are worth roughly zero dollars to anyone else. I'm still glad I kept them once every year or two when I can pull out an old formula. I'd imagine physics textbooks are even less referenceable.

I have a similar stack of political theory books that are even more useless but with the added benefit that they started that way, too. They're currently an impromptu podium to stack some stuff on.
