It's 55°C inside and constantly sounds like a jet is getting ready to take off. Also the bucket is lost so you need to be ready to piss on the server at a moment's notice.

With all the water I’m gonna be drinking to deal with the dehydration from being in a 55c room, that shouldn’t be that big of a deal. Hell, I could just chill in a bathtub the whole time and use my accumulated sweat for the job

The air is hot but still air conditioned so it's going to be dry as hell.

Had to work one saturday evening in our windowless server room under fluorescent light due to some "quick" fw migration.

It went horribly wrong, which was unfortunately caused by myself. I initially wanted to be in and out in 30mins. Was there from 19:00 - sunday 07:30, with only 6 red bull to keep me company and the air conditioning on full blast the whole time.

This was definitely the most stressful day/night of my life. Would not do that regularly even for 300k

I have a portable cold beer system but they probably wouldn't allow it into the server room. Do you have a good excuse for outside hours access so we can sneak it in?

pops a ceiling tile and pulls a box fan over the gap to help exhaust hot air

ALSO TINNITUS

i can bring a shitton of ice water and ear pro. 300k is 300k.

I'd piss on their servers for free

The last time I did ghb I pissed all over my floor so I'm qualified for this.
