"Bilbo," for instance, wanted to reassure us that "When working into the early hours of the morning it's easy to make mistakes" and that he had also locked himself both within and without the places he was meant to be getting work done. He had on various occasions resorted to popping out ceiling tiles and scrambling through crawl spaces as well as popping doors off hinges in the name of getting the job done. He assured us he has learned from his mistakes. We can only hope - for his sake.
Another heroic Regizen was "Hudson" (also a Regonym) who was tasked with replacing the entire network stack in a branch office of his employer - "new router, about six switches in the main office/server room, and two other buildings on the property that each had a switch." Quite a task. What's more, the existing cabling, he told us, was "a crime against all that is good and decent," so he brought all new kit to bring the place up to his exacting standards.
As with Erik last week, the place Hudson was working on used a combination of some physical keys and some electronic ones. This will be important later. He set to work at about 5PM when the office closed for the day, and started deactivating and disconnecting the various cabling and equipment in the main building. By midnight he had rebuilt the stack with all the new kit in place and cabled up on racks and looking absolutely tickety-boo.
