gently caress ServiceNow hard. Last place I was in transitioned to it before I joined and literally nobody in the building knew how to use it. Tickets to get me access to my team's network shares are probably still open two months after I left the place.

Whoever set up that one made it worse than out of the box then, because I never worked out how to close tickets after work was complete and they were sent back to me for confirmation. Having multiple managers for tickets to route through for approval often just resulted in the managers never approving anything because somewhere along the chain one of them wouldn't even know they had to. The helpdesk dudes just gave up eventually, because "open a ticket" was invaribly met with "okay... how?" from the various other tech teams. I felt bad for them really, because at least I didn't get many tickets coming my way.

The most valuable thing I learned in the last year is the difference between "threat" and "risk". Sometimes it's just not worth worrying about aliens hacking your gibson via laser guided dust bunnies.

The Iron Rose posted:So darktrace decided to go full bore on the CYBER GRAPHICS poo poo and it's incredibly infurating to use this slow as hell web service that's running a ridiculously fancy and ridiculously useless topology in the background. Also I really didn't like it that you could dismiss a notification almost by accident with no confirmation required, but there didn't seem to be a way to list the notifications that you had previously dismissed so you could examine or restore them. But mostly the GUI thing.

Antioch posted:I loved Season 1 of Mr. Robot, but man Season 2 seemed really odd to me. Like it had just lost the plot and began this whole over the top crazy thing. I was half expecting it to go supernatural at the end. Hopefully Season 3 is better, I should check to see if it's up on Prime yet. Yeah, there were some cool episodes but it just didn't really work. The twist at the end made me just stop caring too.

Fortis posted:At my company simply getting the work from home infrastructure was a year-long struggle, and they only ultimately approved it because some sales reps wanted to move and be remote full-time. After that, we actually were allowed to work from home up to 20 hours a week (4 hours a day, and a separate unlimited amount of time to work remote if sick) as long as there was coverage in IT. Other departments adopted our remote work policies, too, it was awesome. But then profits dipped and the COO scrambled for an excuse, and singled out occasional remote work as the scapegoat.

Been switched through all four pre-installed phone lines into the house and then had the front garden dug up so the lines could be replaced all because the dudes on the phone wouldn't believe me that the modem was dead Been told that the DNS server on their end was fine even though my neighbours were having the same problem when I cracked their wifi thanks to this bullshit and SSH tunneling via a local university worked fine by people in my own company.
