Yesterday at work the internet went out. Our director of IT stopped by our cubes and the conversation that followed went like this:

Director: "Is the internet out for you guys?"
Us: "Yeah"
Director: "But you can still check your emails right?"
Us: ".... No?"
Director: "But the phones are working!"

*Director walks away to talk with our networking group*

    He's not wrong lol.

    Wouldn't do it, but he's not wrong.

    Irrelevant-ish side story. A hurricane just hit my state and for about 17 or 18 hours (after power was restored) the internet and cell service went down. Kinda freaked me out lol

    @Stuxnet yeah, internet being down is always a really strange experience, especially when the power is on.

    Remember when half the internet was down because of the DDOS attack on DNS servers?
    Our boss spent the day angry at us for not putting it back up.

    I feel you.
