In my next job...

Now, I'm not looking for a job, as I'm very happy where I am, but if and when I do move on there's one hard question I'm going to ask any potential employer. And it's this:

How reliable is your air conditioning?

Because my servers were all sweating away in a sauna this morning when the A/C failed. Again.

We sorted it out and nothing went down as a result. And nothing has failed, yet. (I'm expecting a rash of disk failures over the next couple of weeks.)

I don't know what it is but wherever I've worked has had air conditioning problems. This should be mature technology, but seems ever so hard to get right.

So true!

It seems like the AC maintenance people are on site every month or so.
