The computer technicians division in our office has called a meeting for everyone in the building for this afternoon. I guess that this meeting is mandatory and they will be discussing the new system x servers they would be installing over the weekend. The last time that they called a mandatory meeting, it was to ask each department to give up some of their budgeted operating funds to help purchase the system x servers that were so badly needed in this building.

I remember that the current xseries servers that are currently being used were installed about ten years ago and they were bought used from a company that had just gone bankrupt. No one knows how long the other company had used the xseries servers for before they sold them to us. They may have used them for ten years themselves.

When the meeting started, the head of the computer department informed us that indeed the new system x servers had come in. They were trying to coordinate a good time to transfer everything over from the old ones, to the new ones. They wanted each office to write down the best time for them and they would try and do their best to accommodate everyone’s needs and cause very little interruptions.
