Griz posted:one of the few good parts about supporting the foodservice industry is that the customers are required to have good password policy, either by law (HIPAA) or industry regulations (PCI compliance). How does food service intersect with HIPAA? Is this for a hospital cafeteria?

Kraxor posted:I used to work the helpdesk for a fast food chain, I was told it was a computer job, not a fryer/back freezer/malt machine/phone line/anything else but computer job. Some of the gems I had couldn't be topped at any other job I've had. POS support was hellish -- I did some in my college days. stores would try to save a buck by putting their terminals on a regular circuit instead of a UPS/ grounded circuit, and inevitably, the fryer/ icemaker/ whatever kicking up would draw enough power to make a terminal crap itself. The terminals were Token Ring, and it was common to have a counter stooge uncap the end off the a BNC for no reason, resulting in every terminal making GBS threads itself, or a cable would get melted because it was in a raceway under a salamander or a steam table or god knows what.
