at work I had to hand over the password to our fairly large keepass password database (the owner of the company asked for it, i can't exactly deny it). So I give it to him, the password is pretty long and complex, i tell him very sternly to not write the password down or tell it to anyone. The security of a lot of this business relies on it. I try to open the database the next day getting a password invalid error, i buzz him up, and he says he changed the password to his first name because the one i had was to hard to remember.

A couple things that piss me off to no end.

1) When someone from work will call me and I am away from my phone, they leave a voice mail message saying "hey call me back when you get this". Oh thanks, If it wasn't for your informative voice mail I might have thought that you called me on accident and indeed don't actually have to talk to me.

1a) When people leave me a voice mail with no information what so ever except for "hey, i have a problem, call me back, urgent, thanks".

2) When idiot employees piss and moan about being forced to have passwords other than "12345" and "abcde". No, bitch, I won't make your password easy to remember, it is the only thing that I require of you, I have to remember about 50 of them. Deal with it.

The higher ups here won't let me get some of the laptop users on mozy because they are convinced the guys who work at mozy are going to snoop through our files. They also refuse to believe that encryption is secure and that cracking AES with a 256 bit key is trivial at best.

not really a ticket, but my biggest loving pet-peeve when asking for help with a problem is:

:rant: : "NO I WON'T GET UP JUST TELL ME HOW TO DO IT!"
