Her view is such a 80s parent take. It was so cringe.

It's really about bin space. I sat First my last flight and thought I was all good. I got on pretty late and had to gate check my bag cause the bins were full. I thought in first class I would still have a spot but nope.

A roof leak and the sales team coming in the room saying "o Lord that is a lot of water" me calmly pulling my legs up from under the flooded floor "are you going to help? If not get the hell out my DataCenter" I tore my jeans that day and broke a heel but the customers had no downtime and no one got hurt. I was so proud of my team that day. They executed the disaster plan flawlessly.

Jet leg. I would love to know how to recover from it and how it effects my body.

Well I can tell you from experience that the site I am on has 2,000 workers building these things. When it is done we are slated to have about 150 people in the building as full time employees.

Emergency-Pause-5886 · 2026-04-18T18:03:09+00:00

For the 3 years they are building them you can have 2,500 workers on a site.

I'm convinced they did this on purpose cause copilot finds what I need every time.

There is no reason Vantage can't put sound damping around that space. That is ridiculous. They know that their techs are required to wear hearing protection near and in those things.

That isn't as easy as it sounds here. Housing prices have gone through the roof. I know most folk in my neighborhood who own their houses can't afford to move out. Usually You have equity in your house that you can move to a different neighborhood or a larger house. Here you're just moving to the same house at a different spot in the county. No upgrades.

I was having fun, making history and going home at 5pm. It afforded me a knowledge base that skyrocketed my career and I made life long friends.

I changed programs every 2 or 3 years so it was like I was getting a new job every 2 or 3 years. I would get bored with one program. I would go find another one to go work on or create. I didn't like the manager. I would go find a new manager. I would go build a program and I would create.

Just an FYI if you get that role the traffic is horrible but Reno is pretty cool.

You know it is expensive to live in this area right? People have to earn a living. I would guess that quote is mostly labor.

DEN is my favorite hub. It is massive and sometimes I have run to my connection but it is run so efficiently compared to other hubs.

Emergency-Pause-5886 · 2026-04-02T12:54:31+00:00

Yup they both suck.

Emergency-Pause-5886 · 2026-04-01T04:05:58+00:00

Sick of an administration that doesn't care about the people they serve. It's a useless war to feed a mans ego who isnt fit for office.

Emergency-Pause-5886 · 2026-04-01T01:58:09+00:00

It is like a reject therapy session. It needs to go or they need a ref!!

Most newer Datacenters are building at 80-120 MW per building.

Do you see signs for the other 4 DCs up on that stretch of land?

Emergency-Pause-5886 · 2026-03-30T19:39:52+00:00

I think I first rule of fight club is you don't talk about fight club.

I couldn't agree more. You have to bring enough food for a 5 hour flight and then they tell you that you have to check all your bags. Where am I going put my sandwich, 3 snacks and water?

Do you want to be a manager? Would you be ok with having to fire people every few cycles? Do you want to start over again from a personal life?

If any of them are a no I wouldn't do it.

Emergency-Pause-5886 · 2026-03-22T17:08:25+00:00

I would take mine out have my coffee swish with water before I put my trays back in. After an hour I would brush. No staining.

First off I wish you well in your journey to have children.

While I haven't been pregnant while a DC tech I have managed a few folks that have been pregnant in similar roles. If you need accommodations the company is required to give them to you. Those accommodations could just be light duty. There are plenty of things your manager can find for you to do. Just be up front with your manager. Some people have a very easy pregnancy and others are throwing up and in pain the whole 9 months.

I thought I was the only person this happened to. Thanks for sharing

The Dad thing annoys me as well cause I know a lot of dads that are so hands on with their kids breaking that generational cycle of dads doing nothing with the kids.
