I solved all my CCTV woes in a previous job by giving a sackful of cash to Avigilon. It was a huge sack though.

And that he needs to give it to you.

MiniFoo posted:A ticket came in for a service request from someone who isn't our client: This is pretty lol, but I work at a university so this kind of thing happens literally all the time. There's users in general affairs that call me in to diagnose hardware failures for them despite my department only being in charge of network services. For some reason they've decided they like me to look at their stuff despite me not being a native speaker of their language. I've only been on the job a month, though, so I have no idea who, if anyone, in their department is actually responsible for handling that stuff. They're really nice, though, and it's always something that I can fix in 15 minutes or less so I always just end up fixing whatever it is for them while making small talk. I probably shouldn't do that, though.

The half bath is on the second floor and the full bath is off of my office, which was once a master bedroom? I don't know. It'll come in handy when pulling all nighters, that's for sure. Also, in two years they start construction on an all new wing of the school which will include new offices for administration. I like it. It's got a private balcony to the left and a sunroom down the hall. It's pretty quiet and cozy.

beepsandboops posted:This . . . this makes no sense. Crowley posted:nah, it's just Idiot for "I don't want to learn Powershell/GPOs/Anything invented since ~2000." Bingo. He doesn't want to look at GPOs when something breaks. He doesn't want to scare users with different prompts. "Let the network team worry about group policies". Trust me, they don't worry about group policies. But ok, enjoy doing profile setups in the middle of the night for security, admitting, and staffing. OCT is really clutch. There is a hitch though in that we have 2 domains in our forest that can have duplicate usernames between them. Normally this is not an issue as they do not interact, but OCT sees both domains. I can't figure out if there's a way to tell it to look at only DomainA and ignore DomainB accounts. I'm just going to go with it personally. Best case scenario is that whatever random user gets assigned to the admitting desk at 10pm on a Saturday gets Outlook set up, worst case is they get confused and break it and generate a ticket, which is what happens anyway when there's no mechanism to set up their profile beyond us doing it manually.

A ticket came in: User unable to see required course in training system, please fix Resolution: Manager requested user's account on 1/4/16, ticket came in on same day. Helpdesk intern did manage to create the user account immediately, but then promptly sent the manager instructions that were 10 months out of date. Outdated instructions did not work so user called helpdesk back and was told to create an account through the volunteer portal. Self-created accounts on the volunteer portal have no access to the required course. So many points of failure. pr0digal posted:First day back from vacation and a client has an AC failure in their server room causing their RAIDs to freak out. I spend the morning getting their SAN back online and setting up e-mail notifications for their (very old) Promise RAIDs. I can't wait until we upgrade them to something that won't fail if you look at it wrong.

Order a nicer chair, then blow metal shavings into the wheels of his chair so it eventually starts to squeak.

Buying a new chair is def the bigger power move. And you could play it as if you're the bigger person. "That chair looks like it would be better in my office, they gave me these terrible office chairs. But Im just gonna order a new one becauses its important that we all are comfortable! Thats how I wanna run my team!"
