“There was an emergency and power was temporarily cut to the card reader terminals, and now none of them work. We need to get to the server room to reboot the access control server, but it’s behind a card-only door.”
“How much do we want to get in?”
“Very much.”
“Stand back.”And that’s how I ended up busting down the server room’s door.
Never put a locked door in the way of the fire brigade by the way, they will get in.
Did someone email us about a fire?
FIRE! FIRE! HELP ME!
hope this gets to you soon! best wishes, Maurice Moss
The door doesn’t lock anymore, so we’ve got that covered.
Just don’t end up busting into the servers haha!

How do I keep forgetting to do this? I just need to set a reminder, thank you for reminding me! I’ll add this to the body of the post
You can also set it as the URL parameter.
Well then it would link to the webpage, not the actual image right?

Haha! Same!
People argue about repost bots. I’m happy when I see a comic I haven’t thought about in years get upvotes and more people discover it.
after several years it’s fine, but not two days after the initial post
I do the exact same thing
That’s why you have failover; you never have to fight terrorists to keep your contractual uptime agreements!
tf2 engineer was just a sysadmin trying to create a good failover
Haha lol
“Now I have an access point, ho ho ho!”
Time for shenanigans
I think admins got lazy, that’s why it is the second XCKD meme :D
I’m currently working with a client that doesn’t have a health endpoint or any kind of monitoring on their new API . They say monitoring isn’t needed because it will never go down.
Naturally it went down on day two. They still haven’t added any “unnecessary” monitoring, insisting that it will never go down.
