Saw at a customers today - I can’t make this shit up

Was doing an AP upgrade for a local customer of mine (I do freelance IT services on the side). So I was checking the drops and the switch ports to make sure everything would go smooth.

Something didn’t seem right so i went to the attic and here they have a cable run with 10 network cables coming from each of the unifi APs going to 2 Netgear dumb switches instead of just fucking running them to the MDF with the core switching infrastructure. If that wasn’t bad enough these switches were sitting RIGHT NEXT to the heating ducts, their entire heating system etc.

IMO it was only a matter of time before something caught fire. Anybody have a bottle of gin i can “Borrow”?
