I have a non-fake one I tried to block out but was reminded of. A manager put in a ticket:”Manager” posted:[Employee] is having problems searching Outlook. She does the work of two people and this needs to be fixed ASAP I reply asking what the issue is “Super Employee” posted:[Normal behavior Outlook does on old messages] AND THIS JUST STARTED LAST WEEK I KNOW ITS ONLY A FEW CLICKS AND DOESNT SOUND LIKE MUCH BUT I DO SO MUCH WORK IT ADDS UP She has an (actually) old computer and follows up asking if she can get a new pc if this doesn’t fix her issue. Manager, immediately, without any input from me: ”Manager” posted:[Employee] is authorized for the biggest and best new computer Can’t wait for the “my Outlook is still broken!!!!!!!” ticket because she’s already stopped responding to my inquiries for further information regarding Outlook having heard NEW COMPUTER.

Tickets came in. One was about tablets we use for checking in vehicles and equipment. I had called and talked to the guys because they don’t respond to tickets unless they have something lovely to say. One ticket was “re-opened” because our ever wonderful manager over there decided the world was coming to an end and the tablets (which were still working) “were all down”. The final admonition was “you need to note everything in the tickets before you close them. Good advice you say? I would agree if the other ticket didn’t come in. Another sky-is-falling Manager giving us a ticket from September saying it still wasn’t fixed. Even though literally in the ticket the user replied that it was fixed. When I’m the only person in the office and am just trying to keep up with the avalanche of poo poo that you just keep throwing at me, don’t bitch at me for not noting “user has non-functional brain” when that’s very obviously the problem and you don’t give a gently caress what the notes say anyway.

larchesdanrew posted:Anyways, I'm finding that there are several jobs located about 30 minutes away that I am either way overqualified for that don't pay nearly enough for me to survive, or they pay just what I'm making now but have insane requirements like "must have a master's degree in data architecture and 10+ years experience managing data in a university setting and also no substitutions." The jobs that pay more than what I'm making are director and coordinator positions, but none in my field. I don’t remember posting this but here it is

Siochain posted:Alright, pissing me off. I’ve run into this several times but it’s usually solved by either rebuilding the outlook profile or rebuilding the search index. We’ve had a couple users with recurring instances but I kind of wrote it off as them being poo poo at deleting anything and left it at the ultimatum of them cleaning it up or I wasn’t touching anything else. Haven’t heard back. I think one or two came in today so I’ll take a look again with a different eye on things.

I ‘d recently and actually moved up the chain a bit. My official title is services engineer but I’m basically doing msp work. Thankfully I’m now front line for sysadmin stuff - backups, vcenter, hosted exchange and so on. The bad thing is one of the places is a pet client who likes the cheapest thing every time. I can relate to this more than ever. PirateDentist posted:"What do you mean you can't install office suite on our new chromebooks? These were only $200 instead of those expensive Lenovos! THIS IS AFFECTING PRODUCTION."

AlexDeGruven posted:My neighbor's house 3 doors down took a direct hit once and it fried the WAN port on my router. stevewm posted:Yes it is.... Always remember that most lightning jumps at least a mile of entirely non-conductive gas to hit the ground. The potential radius for (especially frail electronics) damage is quite large once it contacts any system of interconnected conductors.

The last couple years I’ve been happier with Comcast’s monopoly around here just because it means I can go most places and connect to the public WiFi to browse whatever I want with reasonable speed. And it leaves all of my data plan for use everywhere else. But yeah 2gb is very small for a data plan these days. When I was still on a 2gb plan I had to avoid things like Twitter because scrolling through my feed could just burn through data. Which is probably what’s happening with her. Those auto load videos will kill you. Ugato fucked around with this message at 19:17 on Nov 22, 2018 |
