Exercising "cable discipline" demands a lot of patience and determination. Classic phrases like "nobody is going to see this" or "it works the same" lead sooner or later to true nests of copper, plastic, dust, and some extra things that nobody wants to name. The Web does not hesitate to collect these maintenance horrors, which end up published in places like the "Cable Fail" section on Reddit. Today we offer you a humble selection to feed your nightmares...
Personally, I understand very well why these things happen. Managing cables takes time, time is money, nobody pays enough, IT staff basically work with a time machine next to them to solve problems before they happen, and there are too many pressures in general.
The last thing a technician wants to do when someone is asking every five minutes why the Internet doesn't work is to attend to the aesthetics of the cables, and the result is these technological accidents that amuse and terrify at the same time.
No one in their right mind would envy those who must navigate through those cable storms daily, and when publishing this gallery we think of those unrecognized heroes who bet their patience and mental health. Ready? Then, let's go:
