The company across the hall from where I contract is moving out, and they need a place to park their server and one guy for a couple weeks until their new space is ready. (everyone else is working from home)

Because it's "what I do", I'm the guy who had to figure out how to move their T-1 from their network closet to an office in our space.

It turns out that being a professional is not *only* knowing what you're doing.

Last night I put a bunch of tools together to make moving the wires today easier without lunching someone else's stuff.

My toolbag for today:

- toner and probe set
- STM-8 cable tester
- RJ45 breakout box
- high-impedance lineman's set (one that won't screw up data lines if you connect by accident)
- Krone punch down tool
- Krone block test adapter
- 110/66 block punch down tool
- 110 block test adapter
- pick/spooger (yes, that's its real name)
