TRUE STORY
We had a "all hands evolution" which encompased Tech Support, Network Admins and Programmers.
The function of this evolution was to change out a whole clinic of Dell PPRO-200 to Dell PIII 500 boxes. This was to be done early in the morning.(@ 500 am). We got in and got to work. All working together in a concentrated area. The area was also a secured area so there was no one able to come in or out except us. All was quiet.We heard a noise. We didn't know what it was. We went to investigate.There was nothing obvious. Incidently we did not have any women on this working party.We checked out the men's bathroom and discovered it empty.My boss tries insisting that are ghosts and that the clinic is haunted. I of course didn't believe him. Having discovered nothing I let my guard down and was prepared to go back to work passing the women's room, when all of a sudden an elderly woman (go figure) comes out. And scares the bejesus out of me. She was as afraid of me as I of her.
