Did you submit a claim before the deadline? https://www.opmdatabreach.com/ If you didn't, you're SOL at this point unfortunately. Also I logged into my Comcast account just now to reset my password and learned my bill is going up $4 next month too. Just great.

Internet Explorer posted:We bought a house a couple of years ago and we're constantly working on it and the various tech stuff. We both work from home, we both spend a lot of time here, so we're just always working on improving various things. That added to a long list of hobbies, I feel like I never have enough time. Every time I'm out of work for a few days I have the time and energy to get so much done. Then, back to the grind, and poo poo just piles up. I feel this. I bought a fixer upper a couple years ago and before home ownership I had hobbies, and now I have a house. I spent the majority of the last two weeks restoring three of the ~80yo interior doors and installing and painting trim. It feels impossible to make much progress without taking some time off because I have no desire to start up some project after my work day ends, then when the weekend hits the last thing I wanna do is spend my Saturday sanding a loving door. I definitely feel like Sisyphus at times.

I just wrote this huge long rant with way too many details and have deleted it because poo poo pissing me off: people just straight up lying? Submitted a ticket to a guy. More than a week goes by, no response no update. This is a common problem with this guy and his team, to the point that my boss has had multiple meetings with his boss about it. My boss eventually pings his boss about my ticket and I just got a response from the guy of "oh, so sorry, I never saw the ticket because it was assigned to me directly. In the future always assign tickets to <a group that this guy is a member of, along with only like 2 other people??> and never to me personally". Like, what? First of all, our ticketing system has a "read by" list. He read the ticket as soon as I submitted it! And every single time it sent him a reminder email because of the escalating SLA due to no response!! Secondly, he doesn't know how to read a ticket that is assigned to him directly? This entire situation is because of a skills issue (on his part) but there is no way he is that incompetent. So, lying then? Just why? arghhhhhh Sirotan fucked around with this message at 22:23 on Feb 23, 2024 |

Spent like 50 hours working on an inventory reconciliation project over the last 2 weeks or so, I have been looking at spreadsheets so much I am starting to have dreams about them. If that wasn't bad enough, I identified a couple dozen devices that don't exist in our inventory. Sent tickets to the various teams responsible for managing these devices, and asked them to create records. One team's manager just...deleted all my tickets? And said their team just doesn't have time??? Another closed a ticket saying that until an official policy exists, they were not going to make inventory records for VMs????????

My boss is currently on vacation but we will definitely be having a discussion about it when he comes back. Also, probably because he is on vacation, multiple people complained about me to his boss, who then told my coworker to tell me not to make any more tickets. I got grief from multiple managers immediately yesterday after creating all the tickets, and was feeling pretty bad about it all last night, but knowing they also went and cried about how I asked them to do their job? just lmao

guppy posted:It's a bit presumptuous to create tickets and assign them to another team. lol The org structure here is such that I am basically tier 3, and tickets were going to tier 2. Sending tickets to T2 asking them to fix poo poo is a not insignificant part of my job, it doesn't happen every day but it is pretty routine. Some days I might send 2 tickets, some days I might send 40. I am also not the only one in my team who tickets issues out to T2. The manager that made the biggest fuss got all of 8 tickets. Tickets were marked low priority, and I had no expectation that they needed to be resolved same day or even same week. It is a 1-5min job really. Other T2 groups resolved the tickets I sent them and didn't yell at me about it. If I have learned anything it is that I have a fundamentally different understanding of how a ticketing system works compared to several teams in my org. Majority of VMs in our environment are tracked in inventory and I wasn't aware until this week that we needed to literally have that in writing somewhere to ensure compliance with organizational norms. I'm sure there will be some meetings about it.

Reoxygenation posted:I think using Bing was somewhat worth it with a microsoft account cause you could accumulate points to trade in for poo poo with actual monetary value, gently caress using it with that new garbage though lol I won so many copies of Vista (that I then sold on eBay) with those Live Search 'games' that inflated their search user numbers. Had a boring AF campus job at the time and had bots going on like a half dozen spare laptops. Ah, the good ole days.

Manually inventorying anything is loving dumb. I hate it so much. I have been advocating for an automated inventory solution for years now and there is never enough funding or time or [insert excuse here]. So instead I have to nag people to update their poo poo when they forget, or make a new record when they don't. I do not enjoy doing this, it is a waste of everyone's time, and I wish we had a better way. But we don't, I have been told our existing solution must be our source of truth, and thus I have to tell people to add their VMs there.

mllaneza posted:Show me a screenshot and your search term, let's compare. I'm worried about enshittification, but I'm not personally seeing it yet. I've had like half a dozen users click on malicious search result ads on Google who end up calling 'Microsoft Tech Support'. They get told to install remote access software, and then I get to spend sometimes dozens of hours doing a forensic audit on their device. It is real and it is bad.
