I had the dubious honor of rolling servers on office chairs and hundreds of drives from an EMC box in a sterilite to get it upstate to a satellite office.

There was about $5M of gear in my wife’s grossly overloaded minivan. The bean counters tried to deny my mileage because I was using a personal vehicle without prior auth. lol. My boss was ready to kill.

Not fun but educational.

Dude the bean counters. Geez. Sometimes they ought to get fired instead of overruled.

You should have billed as an emergency courier for $50k.
