<(O.o)> This is how I feel about one of my jobs lately, they make things sound so simple but don't know how messed up things really are...
They say, "Hey, come into work, there's something really easy we need you to do.."
"Just need you to replace the white cable..."
I have a picture I'll PM you later of what some dumbasses did, I asked a guy to patch a newly run jack labeled 14J-13, so closet 14, Panel J jack 13, he said he patched it, and I was still getting nothing.
We go look, apparently the idiots ran the cable below 13, I think they were 37, 38 and 39 respectively (just not labeled), didn't see/care about the bottom row of numbers so just used the top to label the jacks. Also they *** up jacks beside where they installed theirs.
It was a clusterfuck, I'm told they got it squared away, I was just happy that the jack worked, I came back the next day and installed the PC as I was almost on my way out that day, I just was checking up on it since I knew they ran the cables, as I wanted it out of the way, instead of waiting to hear confirmation.
People don't understand the importance of cable management, and I'd review and probably fire the network staff if I walked into a closet that looked like that, as they obviously aren't doing their jobs.
