Volmarias posted:The way I best heard this phrased was "we do drug testing here, we like to test a lot of drugs." There's an apocryphal story about Scott McNealy, CEO of Sun (), back in the 80s when the newly minted head of HR came to him and asked him about a drug policy for Sun. He pondered for a while and responded with "I don't think we can make it mandatory to smoke weed on the job"

I think he may have been part of the mandatory weed test program. drat good at his job tho.

The email signature push was stopped yesterday after 114 people called to bitch in a place of 2000+ employees. I am not surprised at all.

I'm on my last week of paternity leave and decide to have a little nose at work E-mails, apparently in the wake of the recent Paris terror attacks people want to review the business contingency plan since we're in one of the most prominent buildings in the city. Now jokes on them as the plan pretty much boils down to; buy everything again and reload offsite core backups. I'm supposed to be back in on Monday but the hospital got back to me and scheduled my gallbladder removal so they'll have to go without me for a bit longer, but I know setting up some proper plans will be slam dunked into the trash when they see there's a cost attached. Now we're not exactly talking Nakatomi plaza, but evacuating this place sucks rear end and I'd rather we invest in jetpacks instead.

Need some advice. Currently using haredesk, which is a lovely sharepoint based helpdesk solution that runs poorly and makes me want to drink more than normal. I'm looking for new helpdesk software, and preferrably some kind of self-service password management setup for AD. Anyone have any suggestions?

I hear it hasn't slowed anything even a hair.

Client receives a bid from a competitor for $4,000. We come in, apples-to-apples, at $3,200. She wants additional services, equipment, and the like. Our total is now $4,200. She's mad at us for "not saving her any money over those other people." I hate customers.

The deductible will probably cost more than the phone is worth new, but you won't even get that, you'll get a refurbished version of a phone even older than yours.

If you're enough of a klutz to believe that it's likely that you'll break the phone over the next year (*cough harsh experience cough*), it might make financial sense to just get it.

Alright I give up. Tried to get ntopng working but found out that I'd need to buy licenses for nProbe to get everything we needed out of it. Does anyone have any reccomendations for bandwidth monitoring software? At this point I guess we could shell out some money for software. Really we dont want to do any traffic shaping or that, just a basic view of whats going in/out, to where, and from who.

While I don't disagree with velcro, I still prefer zip-ties on BNC cables. Looks like there's enough slack there to at least unplug the connectors for testing.

This is the mess I inherited. Even for a small rack they managed to maximize the tangle. They reused cables left behind by the old tenant so they're all crunchy, not to mention twisted in the most absurd ways, to the point of failure. I labeled everything in preparation for pulling it all out and replacing it with something more sensible, just waiting for the new cables to arrive. After I clean up the patch panel I'll move on to the terrible server and switch cabling.

crunk dork posted:What the gently caress dude Crunchy twisted white: phones. Except when they aren't. Crunchy twisted blue: workstations. Except when they aren't. Five foot long cable for a six inch run bundled and torqued into a tiny knot and then stuffed between switches. YES! I don't have the patience to make it pretty but at least when I'm done there will be color coding and velcro bundling and no stupid stuffing and bending and the rest of the pantheon of lovely cabling work.
