I remember tapping into an ethernet cable many years ago.

I was up on a ladder in the basement of a building and I had to find one of the marks to tap into the cable at the precise spot by moving the ladder.

It was actually pretty fun for a software guy to be able to do this.

There was also the feeling of "engineers doing it right", not like that room full of normal employees on desktops that were always losing their network because someone plugged or unplugged something on their thinnet.
