me, at work

Sunday, June 19th, 2011

some electricians are in the room to recertify the power for the server racks, something something something

while behind the servers, one of them notices some dust on a fan intake and wipes it off while yelling back to us “YOU GOTTA KEEP THESE VENTS CLEAR, IT’S LIKE PUTTING A BLANKET ON A RADIATOR, YOU’LL FRY YOUR PROCESSORS”

there is a computer, completely disassembled, on the table in front of me, because i am fixing it, because that is part of my job

i yell back “TELL ME MORE ABOUT COMPUTERS AND HOW THEY WORK”

the electricians didn’t talk to me anymore, the end
