Weekdays enikeyschiki Vladivostok.

I work for a company engaged in IT outsourcing (briefly - fulfilling the role of visiting the ICU. Admins for organizations that can not or do not want to have a full-time employee).
Though in my workbook is written, "System Administrator", I mean the lack of professional education, and, as yet, little experience, I myself "proudly" named enikeyschiki.

30 photo.





The structure of our firm is that everyone in it assigned a role: fitters - separately 1snik - separately, a specialist in systems other than maykrosoftovskih - separately. I also got the role of emergency. Therefore - the whole day on the phone does not stop calls, and the range of tasks is rather wide. As well as a set of skills: the ability to properly understand the customer, to gugleniya on time with limited Internet.

On duty, I have to be wound on the most different corners of our glorious Vladivostok. The movement of public transport and going "on foot."
His vehicle is not yet have, and in a rush hour of our city center on foot on customers run faster.

Customers have different offices of the "three-MFP computer-phone" to firms with requests for individual professionals. There are firms in which, except ezhenedlnyh prof. visits, I am not months. There are firms in which Mota almost every day. And it does not depend on the size of the state or the infrastructure complexity. Either the firm inherited "inherited" from the old admins with lots of pitfalls or overly adventurous climb where users are not asked.
Customers, for the most part, quite a people with its own advantages and disadvantages, frank bastards I have not met, but sometimes it is not necessary to conceal the information, fearing stained reputation. Yes, the famous "I did not do anything (a) - it itself!»

In general, different people, different situations, different reaction. For more than two years work I have accumulated a small arhivchik photos somehow related to my job. In my opinion, most of them are funny, some are pretty, others may vybesit.

Most firms "come" to us already with a ready, not always fresh, network, sometimes it's annoying.



2. And sometimes - frightening.



3. There are, however, initially planned wisely ...



4. ... but later, not always aesthetic, additions



5. The majority of our customers - small companies, with relevant facilities. Hence - a clear minimalist layout equipment.



6. As is sometimes the case of moving to repair, at times anyhow some equipment, and is anyhow anyhow and where.



7. The legacy of previous experts causes different emotions ranging from mild surprise ...



8. ... to outright anger (only half embroidered with rosettes, extra ends are not cut)



9. Sometimes karma and to maintain peace of mind, helping colleagues on the shop floor in small halturki. This cabinet is assembled, connected and embroidered with me and another YaPovtsem.



10. Most firms low cost network equipment. The most common task is to get into the budget, therefore, purchased all of the price / quality ratio.
Firms bigger money is not spared.
But there is a separate category of companies - subsidiaries of major Russian companies. They delivered the equipment, set up and maintain a central IT department, as a rule from Moscow.
Our task is only that to install and connect the equipment according to the instruction and otchtatsya where necessary. But here, not without fun, and not very nuanced.
Firstly, the initial infrastructure of the office is not always possible to implement all of feng shui. And since the money for remaking not provided, and taking into account the time difference with Moscow, some things have to apply anyhow, just to pooperativney.
Secondly, although very rare, scurrying director unpack the equipment on their own, that would be for our arrival it was even outside the boxes. The trouble with that keep the trash in the middle office does not want to, and the boxes are thrown out almost immediately. Sometimes this leads to understaffing. And if the manuals on the Internet easy to Google, here's a brand fasteners and corners to get it already costs money.
In the photo below you can see what species are the two above nuance.



11. Rare shot: a herd of peacefully grazing tsiskofonov. To configure them flew "specially trained officers» ©.



12. The above Soup arrived in our coastal city to replace this nightmare



13. Some customers can find very funny, sometimes heart cute little things.



14. Sometimes come across artifacts from neighboring Asian countries. iPhone 7. Why 7? Because Windows 7.



15. The offices rarely dwells on a regular basis any animals. Maximum - fish and aquariums. But mimoprohodyaschey missing. Since "evil dogs» ...



16. ... finishing demoralizing office environment stray dormice



17. All of them, however, not really showing interest in computers, in contrast to the livestock; my friends.

​​

18. Often written off and manages to snatch a half-dead iron (of course, with the consent of the owners). Rarities, predsmertniki and waiting in the wings piece of iron stored in the garage. Basically anyhow.



19. Sometimes, zealous, no, no, yes forced to collect some of Frankenstein and the nail to the wall that the films would be steep.



20. Often fall to quite valuable items (usb box for PATA drives)



21. As I have said, I move around on their own, that gives me the opportunity to capture the different attractions of Vladivostok. Local beauties do not wait, because they are full of other topics. And generally it is better to come by but stare. Here I'll post that for whatever reasons, may disappear from the streets of our city. For example here is a dream haters Sberbank



22. The company, as it asks: "Shozanah?»



23. Or a clothing store that will make you wonder whether a man should look like, and what he should wear.



24. Inferno vandalism, as it is. It seems to be a little ashamed of our "artists", but ...



25. ... I feel ashamed, looking at the creation of "real" artists. It seems to be a mermaid should be among the shells, but it turned out something among piles of feces.



26. Bag-You-Know-Who is not. Train.



27. As you know, for all the beer is an alcoholic drink, and for system administrators is just a drink. System Administrator Appreciation Day 2012. Celebrate with the filing of the above-mentioned YaPovtsa.



28. A friend is known in trouble!



29. There is a rumor that Vladivostok occupies the first place in Russia in the number of cars per capita. This is supposedly due to the proximity of Japan and the cheapness of the automotive industry. About the place I do not know, but most Japanese cars. True, some of them are not always fully staffed. It happens.



30. Employment in the computer environment - this is war. The war with the machines, the war with the users, the war in providers, etc. In war, not without loss. This fellow blamed for concussion, he is alive, but continued use is not suitable. Replace damaged part and give in good hands to one of his nephews. And though he never fell in battle (dropped out of the pocket in the output, swept the three flights of stairs, and was still on), but many times he rescued me from the boredom on the road and from the place of Faile.
