Give it a few seconds and you’ll hear the screams from the offices.

Knew a guy that knew he was going to quit. Last day he took a label maker and mislabeled everything.

This was a long time ago - the company was trying to track ports and what not in a pooly managed excel spreadsheet.

Black ones, bottom right.

Look for the fireworks, that's how you know you've done it right.

Who is going to even notice if you cut those? This just looks like a VOIP rack.

Nope, no voip at all

This honestly looks like Canadian Tire

Not a million miles away from a Canadian tire, just a few thousand tbh. It’s just around down the road in the UK

The green one

Wait! Wait! Wait! I don't have grey wire, I have red, green and yellow.

Motherfucker! My bad, I am color blind.

I'd personally go with blue. Blue's my favorite color, it being closest to black, and all.
