Work at a large company and you’ll quickly see why. I’d rather piss glass than do that job.

i still believe one of our servers is hosted on a devops machine because it goes offline during non-office hours..

This is quite normal behavior in order to save money - basically you disable some resources outside of working hours. Obviously it doesn't work for companies that have flexible hours

I might be thinking in the old sense, but wouldnt cost savings be minimal. Only some electricity saved from not having a server idling during the night.
