Was it Spectrum that was in the news lately about how their psycho CEO was adamantly 'no remote work' despite the pandemic? AT&T was both incompetent and weirdly efficient with both of my sites 'new' connections. Absolutely terrible communication from everyone after the sales guy, including the byzantine structure they have for dedicated internet support that goes nowhere because it's all automated IVR poo poo. I finally got access to the management portal login for the new accounts by randomly emailing a regional sales manager that was on the contract paperwork. Survey tech showed up with no warning or noticed when no one was around to give him access to the wiring closets. Stapled sheet of paper in the router box was all the config info we got from them, tech just checked the actual circuit and left. Never checked with us to verify if we were up and running. Circuits both work great though and they took like 15 days from the ink drying to be running, saved us 10k a year in connection costs with more speed. And their automated ticketing for outages was faster to respond than a network admin eyeballing solarwinds alerts with a phone in hand.

Despite being able to do 100% of work from home (and having done so for months during the pandemic), we absolutely have to return to building for now due to "perception" Meaning if we aren't in the building, then people might think we don't do enough work to justify our positions. Great place to work, but this is some dumbass thinking.

“Estimates should include everything to get the ticket to Done. Excluding QA.” “Well, uh, it can’t be both. That’s a contradiction. Do you mean everything, or do you actually mean dev work?” “I don’t see the contradiction.”

Really want to do a satire about how scientists discover "jobtanium" in cubicles which explains why being in the office is more efficient because of the productivity radiation emitting from the 11 year old carpeted cubicle walls.

Another entry in the Spectrum saga... Received a call from the local Spectrum Business rep for the area. He was wanting to know if we where ready to order services. He seen a site survey but couldn't find any active orders for service.  We have a "When will Spectrum install" betting pot going now at the office. I have $10 on Easter. I just want to give a company money in exchange for services.

I spent 6 months trying to get an ISP to install a circuit in a very large building that had multiple, large, distinct fiber runs and all they needed to do was cross connect and run fiber up a pre-existing riser. They're all awful.

I've often had good experiences with the onsite techs, but everything beyond that is usually awful. The job orders are so often bizarrely wrong. "You wanted to turn up the new circuit? It says here to disconnect all service and burn the building down."

We have Spectrum bringing in fiber right now, they have to go under the parking lot to follow the existing coax. Works out well because our existing fiber from telco comes in the other side of the property. However, the guy said he's just bringing in fiber for TV and there's no data on the order...

gently caress ISPs all around. I am just so tired of telling people their home internet connection is demonstrably poo poo, but by the time their ISP actually sends a tech to take a look, the problem isn't happening anymore and they shrug and gently caress off until it inevitably happens again 2 seconds after the tech leaves.

Just found out that a bunch of work we did was in fact done wrong, because we did what our client asked us to do, and not what that person's customer actually asked for. I don't understand why people feel the need to interpret and re-write requests when the forward button is right there in their email client. You're not helping anybody.

We currently use Freshservice but they apparently want to put this in ON PREM despite them not selling new licenses past Feb 1 next year. Yeah, we switched over to it a few years ago and I got stuck admining it. It's a pain in the rear end in a lot of ways but I guess I've got stockholm syndrome and like it well enough overall.

What a comcastic morning Looks like there's some kind of outage hitting a lot of the country, but not a total outage at least most of our sites were spared ...save for the site that's the most sensitive to downtime. At least this seems to have convinced them to opt for a backup source of internet.

Well poo poo. I'm working with a general contractor to get a new window installed in my house. They send me a quote and a link to pay 50% with my credit card. When I finish filling out the form it takes me to https://www.jotform.com/ and I get this "oh poo poo" feeling, because right the on the front page: quote:Create online forms and publish them. Get an email for each response. Collect data. I enter my credit card information and it. loving. gets. emailed. to. them. Shame on me for not looking hard at a site before I give it my CC info. And shame on those fucktards for using a form generating site to collect financial information.

Looking at that page, there is a good chance that the CC info is not mailed, but that the payment is handled by Jotform. https://www.jotform.com/online-payments/ So you probably didn't do anything wrong. Jotform for sure keeps a copy of all the stuff you typed in though, and will sell it to marketers.

Dick Trauma posted:"Dear PM: The massive two roll plotter will not fit where you marked off on the floorplan, and also there's no network jack there." We had one of those and they kept wanting to move it around, as it took about a cubicle worth of space. They wanted to put it downstairs, and then back upstairs. This required a forklift. Then they wanted to put it in the warehouse in some back corner, so it was out of the way. This required a forklift, again. And we had to run cable back there. After they realized how dumb of an idea it was to put a printer so far away, they put it back in the office it was in to begin with.

I'm totally cool with handling delivery and installation even though it won't fit, because once the initial setup is done it can be moved around without being a big deal. It's just annoying that we have every opportunity to get it all done in one shot and that's not going to happen because everyone is stupid all the time.

Lol phones. If I had to find a silver lining in the last six months it’s that all our clients are now on softphones connecting to a cloud service that someone else is responsible for, and all the Avaya stuff clogging up their offices is going in the bin whenever they start getting ready to reopen.

We got migrated from Shoretel to Mitel (the in-house, not the cloud offering; "Mitel Connect"), and apparently Mitel laid off all of the Shoretel engineers who understood the product when they bought them, so it's been a loving dumpster fire. We're buying a new phone system now, and we're only buying a handful of hard phones, almost everyone will be on soft phones (we'll have some conference phones and maybe a handful of handsets). Very much looking forward to it.
