We're stuck with it, because the alternatives are all proprietary shitboxes that are huge resource hogs even before you even send a single message.
E-mail still is the least worst solution.

All these 24 standards are poo poo, we should make a new standard that addresses all the previous issues. There are now 25 competing standards.

At least with email SFP/DKIM cuts down on the sheer volume of bullshit. Can't wait for SIP to end up the same way, but given telecom is at best 500x worse than email ever could be, that'll happen sometime after either the heat death of the universe or someone solving P=NP and using it to make a shackled hard AI that screens his calls.

The entire industry missed a trick by not wanting to do ENUM, but then if you have a published way to connect voice to an endpoint you don't need a carrier any more, sooo...

Just things like number ports always having the potential to spring back to the original provider who had the range 30 years ago, with neither party knowing what's happened makes telecoms stuff so awesome.

Must have swapped hundreds out, especially as I got into the practise of walking up to anybody with a CRT who wasn’t treating me like poo poo and diagnosing it as having geometry or focus problems and replacing it with an LCD.

I did this in like 2010. I diagnosed people with "having a CRT" in my crusade to suffer once and purge the building of those things so I'd only have to move them one more time to the recycler pallet.

At least with the CRT->LCD I don't think I had anyone here bitching about wanting their old monitor back. Now they want different keyboards and I get to tell them no since the only other ones we have are ps/2 and the newest PCs are legacy free.

No, this is what it looks like after someone came in to install a fiber line.

I believe it looked almost as bad before hand.

I asked about this when I worked in a datacenter and apparently the system is dry until triggered in most of them, and also "human life is more important than data".

I'm pretty sure I got lied to.

You may or may not be aware of this, so I'll point it out regardless: staying in the environment you're describing will do serious damage to your mental state over time. Your supervisor is actively harming you and should be considered your enemy, there is no saving this place, get out.

Unless the relationship with the C-level is REALLY good and strings could be pulled...

Yeah, it's this. C-Level is incorruptible and would not enable an internecine conflict (not that I would ever be inclined to it, anyway), but there's a significant backstop on meaningful retaliation as long as I just come in to work on time and filled out the activity reports.

The honest truth is that everything is fine. I do have a few reasons to be sympathetic to Supervisor, and I myself have been perceptibly sullen in the wake of a few strung-together disagreements, so I suspect our microaggressions towards each other have been roughly equitable. Personally, that makes reconciliation much easier. Occasionally poor temperament notwithstanding, I boast a certain genius for dragging friendships out of the poor fuckers who get locked in the same room as me for long enough, and I think I've got this person's idiom mostly worked out. We set a daily appointment to touch base in a five-minute phone call, for instance, regardless of whether we've advanced the status quo; There was one last trap that they had lain for me in it* but otherwise it's done plenty to keep their expectations clearly articulated and feeling attended to. They are greatly mollified and I haven't committed to any lack of self-respect.

*(they let me go a week calling them on their extension rather than dialing into a conference line using a number they left as a comment in a perfunctory Outlook event, and then they trotted this out as an example of my lack of compliance. They were giving me the opportunity to see correct myself, you see, and in any event, they don't have time to hold my hand through every individual thing. Not that this was a completely purposeless specification that I had absolutely no reason to go back and check or which they could have mentioned off-hand on the first day I called the arbitrarily incorrect number, or anything.)
