She meekly explained that their computer wasn't working and she was manually getting names. My first thought was "oh my God it's happening again" and fretting about compromised systems.

I mean, I always liked shopping there when we visited Oregon during my childhood cuz their CD section had really weird stuff I couldn't find anywhere else. Our MDM guy knows the guy who originally wrote the whole POS backend for Kroger, and is trying to get him to work for us. Except he's super OCD and doesn't want to move. Or commute further than 10 minutes from his house. And he lives in deep North Portland, so...welp.

Connected two UPS units to a compatible PDU from the same manufacturer and they both exploded. Cool. Now to wait on the tickets for a million years.

A bunch of tickets came in yesterday. Our call center VoIP product was acting lovely, and it turns out resources were at 100% on the server. It was so bad we had to move back to a previous product in our own call center. Turns out we're hosting it on bare metal in our own building, with no plans to expand it in any way. There's less than 20 customers on it, but they thought it was ready for prime time and they were ready to SELL SELL SELL.

The whole city lost power this morning. I was unaware of it because I was not at work yet. I got a frantic phone call from a panicked user frustrated because "she can't get to anything on the network." I told her to call the helpdesk because I'm trying to brush my teeth and she said she couldn't because the power is down all over the city and her [desk] phone doesn't work. First of all, how the hell are you on the phone with me right now if your phone doesn't work? (Turns out she was using her cell phone and thought she could only call the helpdesk from her desk phone) Second, don't call me. Third, wait... the power is out? THE POWER IS OUT. What do you expect to be able to accomplish when the power is out? "I need to print something." Oh, okay, well did you check if the printer has power?

GnarlyCharlie4U, we received a complaint from a user that you were unhelpful, refused to accept responsibility for the situation, and in the end were unable to resolve the incident. Can you explain your performance, and outline a plan to improve for next time?

Am email came in describing an issue with a VM housing a scheduled bot to do some such thing. It is signed with: "Thanks & kindly revert in case you need any clarification." I'm not entirely sure what that's supposed to mean, but sure alright developer dude. Whatever you say.

While that would make sense, they have been entirely useless with any questions I have had regarding how this drat thing is supposed to work. So great I guess.

Data Graham posted:*reverts production to the previous buggy version* I actually did something like that the first time I ever saw "kindly revert" in a ticket. I had just made a hardware change and they replied to me with "kindly revert on what has been done" and I thought the "on" was a typo or something, so I happily went and undid the hardware changes.  They were furious, and got even more mad when I stated that they asked me to revert what had been done, and I did exactly that.Luckily my manager was chill and smoothed it over but cripes that was a learning experience.

Yeah I’ve been hearing revert for years at this point. Basically just means respond.

Especially when the dictionary definition of the word everywhere in the world except India is literally "return to a previous state."

I can deal with it at this point when interacting with non-devs who use it that way. I only wonder though, what do they do when they actually mean revert? It's not an uncommon concept in software development. Every Indian developer I've ever worked with uses the word correctly, but maybe I've just been lucky...

Yeah, honestly at this point I'm just curious about the origin of the phrase. Someone on here (I think?) went into the etymology of "do the needful" and it was really fascinating; I'd love the same sort of thing regarding "revert" as "reply back".
