Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: OFFTOPIC:
My most interesting experience was the first day I worked at the Baltimore
Orioles (a long time ago). The offices were under the seats of the
ballpark...and a few kegs had leaked, forming a large pool of beer. All
things being told, the beer dripped through the floor, which was the
ceiling of the computer room. It wiped out the main server.
Fun first day at work.
