    A vendor working on the fire alarm system managed to accidentally trip the fire suppression system in one of the server rooms, which also caused a full power cutoff to that room, and the huge APC racks somehow were not 100% in function despite them having been serviced earlier this year and all questionable batteries replaced . . . and we lost 2 NAS systems and a bunch of drives in EMC

    so much for the weekend!

    edit - so the fire suppression system has the ability to cut power between the UPS and the systems running on them. But hey! the vendor that caused all this has already replaced the empty inergen tanks with fresh ones!

      Not today specifically, but this week we scraped an old CNC router.

        One of my favorite coworkers' last day. She headed further north to a district now run by my old favorite doctor. Took her to the bar after work for a proper sendoff.
        Long, busy morning. On the way out, set my pile of stuff on my desk and stepped out of my office, and went 'oh crap wait' as the door closed and locked behind me, with my badge on the desk. So had to call a manager to drive back and open my own office.
        Not that it means much to you guys, but it helps to vent and this is a good thread for that.
