I really hate when users call and don't bother to call you when "it's already fixed". gently caress off with your bogus calls because you are too retarded to plug in a cable or click that icon on your desktop, I can forgive you for being bad with computers, but if you realize your mistake don't make me walk all the way to you for nothing while I have 5 other calls open.

 I get "You are exceeding profile space limit!!!!" I cant shut down my pc. This is affecting production!!!! Have you tried deleting files? Waaaaaa? Just remove files from your desktop. You can move them to the data partition! But the doctors made them!!! Well then just click 'force shutdown' and sort it out monday? But I dont get this option??? Can I just hold the power button? Sure, but not on my recommendation. ... (...) THANKS FOR THE HELP (Hangup)Hey, how about you leave it running? Not like no one does that. I cant manage your files and I cant allow you to shoot it down. What do you want me to do here?

Lum how does one listen to your sessions? Also why is it a priority issue when the default website isnt intranet? MD. calls to complain the default ms site opens, when I tell him where the Internet Options are, he doesnt find it. But, he was fairly friendly and called back while I was still at lunch to tell me that he found it, so not a total loss

My job just mutated into a pos, my table is being downgraded along with several coworkers, to desks taken from a building that's being demolished, approx. 25 years old and damaged to gently caress. Also instead of writing an order for facilities, The 7 of us who haven't been here for more than 4 years have been ordered to dissasemble shelves and carry them here, along with the tables. So basically we just got degraded to movers, moving poo poo that isn't even our departments. It's not even like facilities work comes out of our (huge) budget or anything... I honestly don't know what to make of this poo poo, nor how to work on those children playdesks, you can barely fit a keyboard in front of a screen, so no paperwork or anything. They also smell like poo poo and I don't want to store my personal clothes in those drawers. I have no idea who to complain to about this, they are basically making our desks as horrible to be at as possible.

When all that is on your mind is facebook, why not use it as password. Alternatively, that's the password they used on fb, and then they just reused it.

I think I am starting to get depressed because of all the resignation of my boss over complaints, but his happiness to punish and insult me for all the things I didn't even do wrong. It also appears that a majority of coworkers are actively conspiring to sabotage me and tell my boss how I'm trying to get them to do my work, while I actually had to handle a whole day's business on my own because all of them sat in their office and simply refused to go out and handle any incidents. I have no idea what to do to let my boss know that I am, in fact, working and probably more than most of my direct coworkers within the 15 minutes we see each other in the morning meeting. It appears that "supposedly great" coworker is now being taken out of daily life to join my boss for who-knows-what and is talking serious slack in a subliminal way so my boss is taking that as fact. Doesn't help that "manager" (who shares an office with the boss) generally likes to tell him that we all don't do any work ever. I tried bringing this sorta think up in private before, when the boss wanted to ban me from any interesting work after I refused to clean a dusty shelf because of allergies, he didn't even consider this a real issue for me, no, I was simply trying to get out of work. So I talked to him in private and he let me know how he was "seeing me put my workload onto coworkers". We don't have a ticket system or anything (too small/boss' mindset) and he literally never sees any of us work so how he feels to have surveyed this is beyond me. I'm guessing it's what "manager" and sg coworker are telling him. When I told him that he must have a wrong impression he just told me to "prove it to him". Seriously, I just wanted to cry today after he told me that I supposedly hosed up by not telling him about an issue that I told the person in charge about as well as the doctor who then complained to my boss anyway, even tho he agreed to delay it a day. I'll better end it here since I'm just rambling now, I just really don't know what the gently caress to do anymore. HR would just tell my boss off, who then in turn would make my life hell (even more). Any advice welcome. Can't  for another 2 years so...

I am currently sick 4 weeks for an operation. Last year I had constantly reoccuring issues that were related to my cheese intake ( yep, sudden cheese allergy...) and was probably sick a total of 30 days. HR spoke to me, I told them I was sick no matter how much he pryed and thats that. We have to visit the doc immediately, but in turn I can just do that. My employer has no right to know more than that I was sick.

MW posted:It should be noted that this is the minimum that a company must follow. Plenty of companies give you full pay for the full duration of the first 14 days. Though I'm not certain of the limits, I'm pretty sure that what the state reimburses you after 14 days is only a certain percentage of your salary up to a maximum. I believe you a given 80% of your salary up to ~30k SEK (equivalent to about $55k), which is really quite low. A developer for example might expect to earn ~50-60k SEK, or about $100k usd yearly in Stockholm (capital). Here the first 4 days are paid by the employeer and then you have 3 weeks full pay and after that it declines to half I think. Some certain groups have slightly longer drop off tho.

So I'll be external Monday, Thursday and 1 hour every Friday for the next 3~ months. Boss is telling me to come in before and after the 1 hour assignments. ... For some reason this really pisses me off, even though I understand the (company) motivation. I guess it's because my Boss seems to give everyone the rest of the day off when poo poo like that is forced on them, but because of his weird hate-boner against me right now, I am exempt.

"Hey theres a call and no one from Ops wants to go and you are just sitting there doing thing I dont understand. You go." "What do you mean you were out on calls??" I basically am expected to learn Java in our shared office/workshop/small parts storage on my own and without exemption from regular work.

Sweevo posted:They were probably using an off the shelf ID card program - all of which are terrible. It was probably a Windows 3.1 program that's been hacked to run inside a Windows XP compatibility wrapper. It probably supports 24-bit uncompressed bmp files and nothing else, and has small and completely arbitrary image size limits because it was originally designed to run on a computer with 4MB RAM. To be fair, my BIOS picture utility only accepts BMPs with specific color settings, which isn't documented anywhere. I just figured I'd match the settings that would make a picture look like a typical bios picture, and bam, worked.

Hah. I visited a "datacenter" (of the ubiquous closet/storage room-turned-datacenter variant) where I found four daisy chained consumer power strips ultimately plugged into a single socket.. The power strip nearest the socket was hot to the touch. [/quote] Most power strips I have come across are rated at 16A, which is more than your average fuse allows you to draw anyway.
