can your 2fa not realise that this person is logging in from your own office on the same machine they used yesterday or do you need to protect each session for a reason?

azure can be setup to only force 2fa for users outside ur network but imo its better to just keep it on cause users will get confused when things work 2 ways

the tech department is the worst for this thing, doctorates in electrical engineering, multiple patents, don't bring their cell with them. some of them have legitimate data collecting/vulnerability fears, but i'm sorry, we already live in 1984.

lol if your business isnt putting a company phone in their hand you have no reasonable expectation for them to have a phone or let you use it

i think its fair to require them to use an issued computer (e.g. smartphone) while they're working, but it's also fair for them to leave it in a desk drawer when they leave for the day

dude interrupts an in person meeting to ask if another present person had just read his IM.

"hang on a minute".

the whole meeting stops for a bit and watches her reading her IM.

edit- followup on the IM

"hang on let me share my screen with you so you can read this email"

there's four of us on my team and three of us are in this building so we all have meetings in my boss's office. he'll screenshare one of his displays to anyone else on these meetings but he'll keep outlook open on the second and whenever an email comes in he'll read it.

google are going all-in on this idea that meetings are a waste of time according to their recent presentations about g suite. including automatic responses to people trying to book your time telling them to gently caress off.

i'm currently in a daily standup that's bloated into a daily hour and a half meeting listening to the manager describe daily standups to us and how we need to start having them after the meeting we're in because we're not making enough progress so upper management is requesting daily updates on all development tracks

i don't see this backfiring at all
