Lab
Here's a picture that I drew of myself at work. Yes, I'm in a room full of servers. The tower that I'm standing next to holds the machines that my department uses to run builds and test instances of the database. They're Dell machines, but what can you do?
Anyway, What I'm dong in the picture is making an 'image' of one of the machines. What this means is, I'm making a copy of the hard drive so that, if later we screw it up beyond repair, we always have a 'save point' to return to. It's not hard, but it takes forever and gives me an excuses to wonder around the server room and check out the equipment, which is always a nice change from the desk.
