When Sysadmins Ruled the World - Like that'll Happen!
There is something immensely isolating about working alone in a very
secure, huge data centre, at 4am on a Sunday morning in an isolated
"business park" in rural Scotland that only a few people will ever
understand.
The mind wanders, your ears strain to hear things over the quite loud air conditioning and just five minutes in daylight with a can of diet coke and someone to talk to would make the last 48 hours seem tolerable. It's hard to describe and even harder to capture but When Sysadmins Ruled the Earth makes a decent go of it.
Here is to everyone who has played "hunt the vending machine" while swapping hard drives.
