Fun 3D rendering of what the elevated station looks like. Ignore the stuff inside of rooms.
Using the same map to get you oriented. My office is in A3.
Today's quick post is about A3, where my office is. My office is in a giant room with a 13 seat computer lab and 12 office cubicles. In year's past, there wasn't wireless so the station computer lab was a major hub of activity. Now that we allow laptops and cell phones to connect, this space is not well used. I am sure it gets a little more action in the summer with the population quadruples.
The station computer lab
Just past the campus computer, there are twelve computer cubicles for facilities, waste, food, safety, and fuels departments. Nothing sexy there, just lots of fun and silly decorations.
Cubicle land
The last piece of the big room is my office. The network admin sits on the right. As the sys admin, I sit dead center in this photo. During the summer, a PC tech sits just to the right of me. There is an extra squished space for an extra person to the left. It is squished because we installed a 3D printer a couple years ago. It gets a little recreational use, like to print tripod leg caps, but we also use it to print tools for the mechanics or toilet paper holder replacemnts.
My office for most of 2024.
Just past my office is medical. They can do all the basic stuff really well, but nothing fancy. They would strongly prefer that we don't hurt ourselves. In between, there is a large hall way with photos of every wintreover crew from 1957 to last year. We just started planning our own photo last week. With folks on various shifts, it can be tough to get everyone in a single photo, let alone dressed in all their gear for an outdoor photo.
Past winterover crew photos
The more recent winterover crew photos. Our photo will likely go near here.
We might get down to -100F for the first time this winter in the next 12 hours.
