Fully fitted with a huge rest area!

OH there's so much "good" I could do

I *need* one of those walls...

Magical Ominous Menace, Simon. :-) A Class Act for any BOFH worth their weight in Bean Counters.

Not bad i suppose... 

...could have sworn i'd seen a roll of carpet and a bad of lime in the corner though.

Server-room of Leaves... 

Thumb Up

Very sinister...

What is he on about?

Sam Tana

Disappointing... 

Thumb Down

Disappointing that the BOFH and PFY paid for the work out of their own pockets. Isn't that what creative accountancy is all about? Those electrical tool kits don't really cost £2,000 a pop, you know...

Chika

A moveable wall hiding a ghost installation?

I WANT ONE!!!

@Steve 

I was wondering exactly the same thing...

@ Steve 

Alert

Same comment keeps popping up everywhere. Not sure why, usually titled "@ Tim".

Probably some running joke that us mere mortals aren't part of.

(obligatory addition) - **Oi Scamps! Get on Yahoo, I need to talk to you about Stu!**

Jamie Kephalas

this one's pretty self-explanatory

Good one! Question is, when's the PFY getting Simon back for the job reference?

JP Strauss

@Steve RE: AC1 

I think the poor man was trying to comment on a different thread and ended up here for some weird reason.

Or maybe he also "self-medicated" a bit.

If you look at the title of the second post and the 1 minute time-difference, it seems as though these the two posts got siamese-twinned.

Tony Barnes

Very efficient... 

...thinking - like it!!

Peter Ward

When does the PFY's mum appear agin? 

Nice one, but I miss the weekly post. Oh man I miss it.

So when does the PFY's mum come to talk to Simon about his comments about her son, as she runs the canteen in the company he was applying to? And everybody knows that the canteen lady knows everything thats going on...

Also what happened to the batcave and pole? Or is this in the new room?

Rodrigo Valenzuela

Self sacrifice? 

BOFH self sacrifice?

That's what lusers are for! (sacrifice, I mean).

I'm sure there is an untold story, because he would never do such a thing...

Gone now. As if it had never been.

@ Steve 

What are you talking about? Next thing you'll talk about variably sized rooms, I guess. Now quit the cold medication already, and surrender to the Mighty Moderatrix Of Hell.

Not quite. What's gone, exactly?

@ Jamie 

Re: Question is, when's the PFY getting Simon back for the job reference?

I was wondering the same thing myself. The last few BOFHs have been back on form, so maybe fortnightly updates give Simon the time to craft his best work. Which is perhaps a little suprising given how little else there is to do in the Waikato.

See now you have a choice you can take the red pill or the blue pill......

Re: Everyone 

It's not as if the BOFH has been done by weekly update for at least the last few years: it's always been about 42-45 stories for each 52 weeks.

Dead Vulture

A coherent and relevant post from amamnfrommars! The Universe is about to end!

Dead vulture because when the universe ends, el reg will die with it.

Pendants corner 

One chain is 22 yards, or just over 20m. I know he was thinking on his feet, but it's not like the BOFH to get that sort of thing wrong...

Paul Stephenson

@|333173|3|_||3 - a title is here but still required?? 

There's been a few lately, I'm beginning to wonder if he's losing his marbles :O

Maybe he's been drinking.

Surely you meant Pedants'?

Mines not a coat, it's a jacket.
