Ah, no. Maybe just a construction guy.
Just after the qualitative seminar (where I was a participant, but turned into a Macgyver-all-around utility guy), I was asked why the hell the Internet connection cable had to go up to the rooftop. Our connection was an aerial one, so I explained that was the only point visible from the other building that could get into the hall. Instead of inquiring what else could be done to improve the "invisibility" of the cable, we got hit with this:
"What do we do?"
"Well sir, the ideal setup would be to drill a hole from on that side and protect it with a PVC pipe."
"Okay, so you guys drill a hole."
Right. I'm a friggin' programmer, not some dude with a mini jackhammer! But if you want a hole so bad, give me about two hours and I'll walk to the rail line, get a huge nail and a circus hammer, then start pounding on the east side of the building. Sorry if the hole isn't perfect, gets a bit large or looks like a baseball-sized diamond flew from the moon.
