[ale] Google office doors hack

[Justin Goldberg]

I worked in the Atlanta data center. The doors were often in maintenance.
Once a guy got stuck in a secured area and needed to go to the restroom and
security would not let him out. And the security staff was mad that he
reported them for it!

Sincerely,


Justin Goldberg
