Speaking from my friend's experience, school districts totally still do that. Their uptime only has to be good, not amazing. I don't think he's ever run into any HVAC issues, though.

- abakker 7y agoYes, because kids care about football, but nobody cares about a schools IT department. For schools (and many businesses) IT is just a utility.
- 0_gravitas 7y agoI didn't care about football, I cared about computers. My entire school district didn't have a hint of CS more advanced than learning how to use Microsoft Office. Additionally, there are ways to play football outside of a school team, I played soccer for many years outside of school and enjoyed myself well enough.
