Expensive Joke that Companies have to take in ....


Recalling yester years....

I was working for a Chemical Company, we had a boss, He was nothing less than a joke.

This is what happened once...

The storage system needed additional Storage, the Boss came and said we need to buy additional HDD, as usual, we found the best fit and said: "buy the same HDD model and specification for compatibility with the existing set of disks ie 350MB *6, 5500RPM ".

The Boss came back, after a few days and said, I have got a good deal on the HDD purchase and said, "I have purchased 1TB, 7500RPM *6, see how smart and intelligent I am, you guys should learn from me".

We said : "WoW, Boss you are smart, you got a super deal", but we were laughing our butts off.

Later the IBM storage engineer came to fix the new HDD and said: I can't use this HDD, it won't work here, Boss was perplexed and was very angry with the IBM engineer.. and started shouting at him, The engineer left the place and said please talk to my office on how to fix this HDD.

The technical issues is when you have a RAID storage system in place all the HDD has to be with the same specification for the system to function and this was not known to our him. The HDD was an expensive one and could not be used anywhere else, Now he had to give an explanation to the management why he spent Rs.3.5L for the HDD when it was not needed.

This is what happens when you think you are smart but in reality, you are dumb

This is a real story from my career
