Did they get confused and think a "full stack engineer" is someone who puts cargo containers on top of each other

When I was 15 I downloaded a Linkin Park album without paying for it over the school’s network. I haven’t been employable ever since.

When I was 18, I frequented the BTB subforum, and ever since then i have posted on SomethingAwful

We also use Jabber, but that's really only for sending links or ticket numbers since we're all in shouting range.

As an aside: Does anyone know anything about MAPIlabs Mail Merge Toolkit? A group in HR are using it so now I have to figure out and explain why it isn't working and get it working. :suicide101:

Found out an hour before leaving overtime yesterday that outgoing emails weren't going out, but incoming ones were still coming in - and couldn't get hold of the networks team for a fix. Wheeeee

Shut up Meg posted:

Were you emailing them?

Correction: outgoing *external* emails weren't going out. Apparently Networks were working on it "all night" but it still isn't fixed 12 hours later

I was in a city government and I was moving an office. When I was done the office manager told me that we had a $300,000 surplus that I needed to spend due to use-it-or-loose-it budget rules.

I ended up buying all kinds of stuff like new desktops and monitors, a whole cabinet full of servers, new network gear, the works. I basically moved the office and then bought enough gear to build two more offices from scratch.

A few weeks later as I’m unboxing all the kit the office manager comes back in a panic because apparently the $300k was a pooled fund for several departments and EVERYONE had drawn it down to zero so the fund was about to be about a million dollars overdrawn. I’m sitting in a room with thirty workstations that I was using as a folding farm and we won’t be able to buy tape or paper or toner.

Welp!

Sounds like a good time to go paperless~
