reddragdivaA tale I probably haven't mentioned yet:
I left Ericsson AsiaPacificLabs Australia at the end of 2001. Around September 2002, they folded that entire division (all development in Australia — Ericsson was haemorrhaging red ink so badly they were cutting off limbs to survive). I heard a story on the mailing list for our section's ex-employees. The story went that they had by that stage lost all their sysadmins, and in fact all their systems workers in general. They had a small problem: it seems no-one left knew where the actual server room with all the machines they were using was. THEY LOST THE SERVER ROOM, SOMEWHERE IN MELBOURNE CENTRAL TOWER.
Did I get in touch and tell them? CUE LOUD CACKLING FROM THE DIRECTION OF LONDON.
