Server room nightmare challenge

I'll start taking pictures tomorrow.

Expect a portfolio of the good, the bad, and the 'wtf'.

You, sir, have my interest. I love gawking at slow-motion train wrecks.

And those are two of the less-shocking rooms in my stores.

The first photo is bad but the second one is simply terrible.

How could anyone find where the cables are going in that Patch Panel.

More importantly how can you try to claim that the person you have just killed was anything other than a deliberate murder. I love messy cable Junctions they allow you to get away with Murder.

That makes the room I had as a teenager look pristine...

That's nothing. I am pretty confident I have those beat by a longshot. You'll have to wait until the contest is over though to possibly see them. If they are not selected by some chance, then I don't want anyone seeing them. LOL

And will submit pictures. Notice the stainless steel shelf in the one picture? That's the "server rack". Some of my stores don't even have that.

I have one or two to add. Let's see if I can find them...

Unfortunately (well really fortunately I guess) I have no pictures to send in from my workplace. About the worst I have in my building is the closet where half of the closet is a janitor's closet (with a sink and everything) and then the half behind the door is a wiring closet. They are a decent distance apart though so it really is better than it sounds.
