Welcome back to Tech Service Today's IT Disaster of the Week series where we post the ugliest IT environment our technicians run into each week.

This week's photo caption is:  APRIL SHOWERS Are In The Forecast

At first glance, this looks a bit like a meteorologist's photo of a frontal boundary which means rain in the forecast. While it is actually a room that one of our Technicians recently visited at a customer site, we believe it is equally indicative of a strong chance of precipitation.

While the person who hung this cable had the good sense to use a cable tie (which is the only positive thing we could find to say about this scene), they secured the cable to a sprinkler head. Even if you are not an IT professional, everyone knows that you should never subject your electronics to water. So we can not imagine what was going through the mind of the person who hang this cable from the building's sprinkler system.

Fortunately for this customer, they had the good sense to call Tech Service Today to have one of our skilled IT Technicians visit this facility, point out the error of their current solution, and then uninstall/reinstall the network cabling throughout their office. Our experience and proficiency in restoring order to the most ugly IT disasters has made TST's Cabling Cleanup Service our fastest-growing offering in company history because it not only reduces headaches but also reduces the time & cost required to maintain your network.
