Just got back to the office after 3 days of converting this:-
Did someone just rip the stuff out of the rack?
-
that looks like one of my closets in our old building... no room for a rack in it though. It's a nightmare, i just leave the door shut.
-
No this was after we had moved the cab and started but it was that messy (the patch panel was in place before hand lol) can't find the "before" shot.

In the picture below it looks like that rack just threw up on itself...

Well - it was dark, and I have a mask on. The flash light on my phone wasn't working quite right and I was afraid one of your neighbors would notice the side door open....
Did you at least find the money I left?

I've inherited a lot... off the top of my head, here we have:
10-12 48 port switches, easily as many patch panels if not more...split between 2 main areas, with 2 cabs in each...and spaghetti doesn't come close...Plus the cables have then been zip-tied together to within an inch of their life, with no wiggle room, and plenty of pinch points...
Cables punched into the wrong slots on some patch panels (is it that hard to follow the colours?!)...I have a fun weekend ahead of me at some point I feel...

I'm certain you had the wrong house if you found whiskey and failed to set off any of the myriad boobytraps and landmines.
Also if it did not smell of richly tanned leather, aromatic cedar and musk you had the wrong address.

Never boring reading the posts around here....

It's understandable. Whiskey is not for all "men", only those of us who are accustomed to chopping wood with one hand and yoking oxen with the other.

I work on the weekends all the time only getting paid for 40 hours. I get my evaluation done and my average is a 4 out of 5 (basically the highest they will ever give) except they say I took 6 sick days--5 of which were cardiologist visits for genetic testing and I'm "not reliable enough". The only day I legitimately had a non-scheduled day off was because the office policy is to not come in sick.
I'm like Wat.
You'd think they would be understanding considering all I do for this company. Smh. It makes me not want to go above and beyond. I get no credit for anything I do only attitude. Then I get annoyed that nothing is up to my standards. Maybe my expectations are too high. Idk.

wow...that's bad dude...that's worse than my last job, and I left that because of it...if they don't even recognise your efforts, then leave while you still can!

Why are you working weekends?
When I was younger I worked weekends because I was poor, the things I wanted to cost money, and I could make extra money working the weekends.. now, that's simply not the case.
And sure, while my job allows some flex time to work weekends, it's not a normal requirement of my job.
Is it of yours?
-
@wirestyle22 most jobs are that way. You'll either find a good situation where you are appreciated, or you will eventually outgrow the need to go above and beyond for mediocre employers. Obviously, you want the former, not the latter.

I'm just educating myself as hard as I can and then I'll start applying. I have confidence issues with my knowledge but only for the interview. I know I can do any job. I went in as a anaesthesia technician in the operating room of a major hospital for instance. I didn't know anything starting that job.

I go above and beyond. If I see a problem I try to fix it even if it isn't a benefit to me. My work ethic isn't appreciated though unfortunately. Salary is like indentured servitude.
Note: it's not exactly a requirement but I can't realistically run this place without working weekends sometimes--to my standards. Even with me doing this I'm at the mercy of the executive director and I can't make any changes or do anything but they expect it to improve somehow.
