ghostinmyshell posted:Thing pissing me off: Poor messaging and now media hype about this intel related hardware issue and exploits(including amd) have people freaking the gently caress out and bothering me about it. Yeah, I was up last night until 3AM writing up an analysis and summary to head off any pants wetting for today. Even though I'm still on PTO, around 10 PM after reading the white-papers and playing around with the PoCs my brain went "spend a little time to salvage the rest of your PTO". Also, I'm absolutely clawing that PTO day back.

I will say I have come within a tenth of a second of standing up and breaking my keyboard across my knee and/or face at least 5 times in the last two days. At least it's not because of generalized job anger this time like at the last job.

Aunt Beth posted:Details, please Like his father he has anger control issues. He melts down regularly. It's interesting listening to a child of privilege (Ex: he is building a multi-million dollar home from scratch, paid for by his father as "practice.") saying things like "of course this isn't working and it isn't going to work and my life is loving poo poo and nothing ever works and I should just blow my brains out" because Outlook has popped up a login prompt. He once pounded a new keyboard to pieces and then walked around the office with this weird grin on his face, holding a wad of bloody paper towel to his shredded knuckles. Like his father he throws equipment, racks his car up and rapidly oscillates between being friendly and being a horrid, entitled shithead. Their whole family is a variation of this, always shouting and swearing and cursing their fate.

My group specially (Windows server) has started installing patches to test servers. I personally haven't really done poo poo because it's my 5th week here so I'm mostly shadowing.

pissing me off: Old dudes being weird. There's this guy retiring after 37 years here. We bought him a fancy pants 15" mbpro and I was configuring it. dude proceeds to tell me how I remind him of his best friends sister that he always wanted to go out with who has the same name as me. i'm just like "uh neat" hour later he comes back to do something else "You remind me of this woman who has the same name as you and she and you look exactly the same and even the same laugh - (i cringe giggle) - "yeah just like that and I just saw her yesterday after not having seen her for 2 years and clearly it is fate that you are working here and isn't that nice" (also includes some weird god stuff that I kind of tuned out so I wouldn't get mad) "yeah that is neato, put in your apple id creds here please" Thank god it was his last day. What the gently caress. In other news, i've been at this job for almost a month and I really do love it here. I'm no longer direct customer facing IT (except VIP stuff) and am doing SCCM/jamf work almost exclusively. The tasks are genuinely interesting and the vast vast majority of the people are happy to be here and really easy going.

ChubbyThePhat posted:Double post: I've been using it for about a year - first in a mixed windows (2000ish clients) / Mac (1000ish) environment. I'm a big fan. It can be finicky about large deployments from the cloud but otherwise, once you get DEP and all the ordering poo poo right, its pretty drat easy to use. It only really sucks if your organization doesn't send useful people to get training. I've got my CCT and i'm going for my CCA training and test in 2 weeks. I'm in a smaller organization - about 500 total clients split between mac and pc now and my only irritation is that since we are a smaller org, our service is a bit slower. I got spoiled by having a dedicated tech. edit: Specifically for tables and phones - im actually not positive that it is the best option. Depends on org size and what you are doing. I used to work for a very large retailer with something like 29,000 ios devices and we actually used mobile iron. We had a jamf environment but it was specifically for corporate macs. silicone thrills fucked around with this message at 00:33 on Jan 5, 2018 |
