Computer Graveyard What Day At Work

Computer graveyard What a day at work... They sent me to the infamous stock room in the basement of the building to take out existing hard drives from the dead PCs of the past fiscal years. When I was first given the job I was pretty damn excited, I love tinkering and opening up machines. But these IBMs were waaaaayyyy old....I think the tiny stock room is haunted by the ghosts of the IBMs. It took me like an hour to remove 4 hard drives. It was not easy. Those PCs were so damn dirty, and the case design is not as simple and intuitive as the Dells of today. There were a bunch of other machines I didn't touch because they were either rusted or burnt. So I came back up with the drives and they said I need to get the ones from the rusted and burnt machines too and they handed me a glove! Wtf!? Who do they think I am?? What if I cut myself or something? Are interns that dispensible nowadays?? I put on my glove and went down into the basement and I sat on the toilet to kill some time. Pretty soon it was time to go home.
