Something seems to be eating up all my hard drive space on my work computer. 2Gb has been filled up since Monday. It's not the OST file, but I'm not sure what is actually causing it.

What in the gently caress. So yesterday we got a notice that water was being shutoff for major repairs and it's a 5 minute walk to a coffee shop and a bank that both are aware of the situation and have agreed that we can just use their bathroom on an unaffected street. Estimated time of completion is Saturday so basically no bathroom until Monday and you can gently caress off for 15 minutes saying you are going to the bathroom. Like half the staff are just not at their desk at any point between yesterday since the shutoff. Most people are using this as an excuse to drive 5 minutes to go someplace "less crowded" which really means they are going shopping at the mall that is a 10 minute drive. The level of abuse is really noticeable but no one seems to care. A few minutes ago we have a phantom shitter (or it was noticed then). Someone poo poo into a toilet and we have no way to remove said waste. There is a sign and caution tape. I haven't investigated but word is that it is solid. I could understand if it was horrible liquid shits and a 5 minute walk was out of the question.

In a lot of places, it's against OSHA regulations for the business to be open without water.

However, a quick google says its fine if it is beyond the employers control: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Occupational-OSHA-Environmental-1417/2011/3/running-water-time-limit.htm

Update on the poo poo: Someone has volunteered to go to the pet store and get a fish net and scoop it out. The idea that this was an emergency and someone couldn't hold it, someone is going to home depot and getting 5 gallon buckets for emergency use only to put in the bathrooms. I'm pretty sure porta potties are the correct answer but we do have reasonably close bathroom arrangements that are acceptable. Also no way would they spend any money on them management would sooner close down for tomorrow and just not pay anyone since very few people are salaried.

Even if it's a commercial version, you can probably just pour water into the toilet and get it to go down. I would carry 5 gallons of water across the street before I'd fishnet that poo poo.

More than "probably," that's the fundamental design of toilets. You add a bunch of water to the bowl until the pressure increases and it overcomes the air pressure on the other side of the lip.

I only found that out be a use I lived in a poo poo hole where we kept a bucket in the bathroom for exactly that reason. It's not something a lot of people run into if they've lived in reasonable buildings their whole life.

I'm pretty sure it's the out that is actually being worked on so there would be no where for it to flush. If the pipes were drained first might be a flush or two in there. Either way wasn't me who said they were going to fish.

Was having a media problem with one of our voice gateways, so I enabled call detail record monitoring to watch media cause codes. Walked away for 30 minutes and found the CPU went up to 100% - then I was really having a problem. It is like stepping in the biggest dog poo poo possible sometimes with these things, putting in a command that shouldn't impact anything at all causes the whole thing to go off the chain. So, it exists both in a state of broken and working and I can't observe it without it going to hell. Great.

motherfucking goddamn waste of a loving day. My predecessor set up a bunch of lovely projects right before he left. He didn't create project plans, document what needed to happen, and then hand the poo poo off to me to plan / purchase / complete. He bought a bunch of poo poo, called the contractors and briefly explained what needed to happen, the hosed off. I'm sitting on inventory trying to figure out why the project is happening, what it's replacing, how everything is currently configured, how it's supposed to be configured, all in time for contractors showing up to install the poo poo. All the while I have users breathing down my neck asking when this poo poo is getting done because they've been waiting for months. 2 hosed firewall installs today ended in roll-backs. 8 on-site hours from the engineer is getting billed for not accomplishing anything. On both sites the predecessor told the tech company "These are new site installs" when they had fully configured networks including VPN tunnels and internal VLANs. If anybody tries to blame me for the insane amount of money I have to pay for getting the tech out here AGAIN, I'm going to carefully search for the biggest loving bus possible.

People trying to throw me under the bus piss me off. Yes, we talked about some application problem some people are having, and I told the guy who raised the issue to make a ticket - just like everyone does for every issue. Two months later the guy gets his rear end in gear and makes a ticket - while I'm away for a few days on a Microsoft Licensing course. Autoreply updates the ticket with the information that I'm away and will be back in two days. Two days later I get back to the office, see the ticket and reply with a question asking if the guy would prefer Solution A or Solution B. He replies with an answer and I get to work. This morning I get a sour letter forwarded from my boss. Apparently Guy got poked by his own boss and whined and moaned about how this problem has existed for soo long and how IT isn't doing anything about it. gently caress that! So.. I spend 30 minutes typing up a nicely worded FuckYou'o'gram to my own boss, Guy's boss, and Guy. Ticket system is helpfully providing time stamps, chat logs, mails, etc., and I use it all to nail his goddamn balls to the floor. At least I get the satisfaction of telling everyone on that mail chain how IT is fine, and Guy is a flaming dick.

Only had to do it once so far at the new job, and the guy apologized and admitted his fault. Been good ever since. I love saving emails that state requirements, then having people say "I NEVER ASKED FOR THAT". Well, you did, here's your email. Assholes.

Take two days off, come back to: - Two new starters appeared with no equipment or place to properly work - Construction work with last minute instructions - Desk pod setup quote where they don't want to pay for the equipment in one go, but stagger it instead by ordering in bits when needed - VOIP "Problems" - People going nuclear at VOIP host because external developer having trouble building integration  It's also pissing me off we keep hiring people and keep wanting to use Salesforce licenses we don't have, when we have one month left contracted with them since we're going to stop loving using it.
