UFOTofuTacoCat posted:The best April fools prank I've seen at work was someone putting notes on copiers saying they are now voice activated and to place your paper on the copier and tell it how many copies you want. Several people fell for it. All those were posted in the forums this year for people. They have been a few years now I believe.

Helushune posted:Edit: Also, Sharepoint Server. We're throwing 4 cores and 8gb of ram at the VM and it's still capping out everything and asking for more. All this server does is host ONE MS Project site that's shared between three people. I knew sharepoint was hated, but never knew it was that bad of a resource hog. Is it really chewing up all 4 cores?

tomapot posted:Pissing me off? When someone doesn't read the last message in the thread after I replied and added someone else. Now there's two different branches to the same email chain. How hard is it to take a second before replying and sort by subject or date/time. My old boss would not read email all day, then later at night start responding to emails. He would respond to the first one in a thread and just ignore the extra dozen emails that came in since that. It would make my blood boil.

QuiteEasilyDone posted:Apparently the story is that we'd worked with VMware to temporarily upgrade to perform a VMotion transfer when one of our Hosts failed or was failing. I'm not sure of the particulars or the technical just that it was done to enable VMotion. That upgrade license has expired at the end of last Friday. I did the temporary trial on a handful of hosts at an old job to get some SvMotion (before that was available in standard).

My coworker tweeted some hate towards their support. Within a few hours my ticket was escalated. The email thread that I came into was started by their marketing director telling their support director to do something. Pretty hilarious.

Sickening posted:I haven't ran into issues like that before but I have faced software piracy in the work place and refused to install unlicensed software. I look back on it and think about how I created conflict when it wasn't my place to do so. I simply should have sent an email letting my boss know that I believed that we weren't licensed for the software and then did what I was told. You don't sound like yourself today. But yes, I agree with that. Start a paper trail of why you think it is pirated and of your boss saying to do it anyway. Might as well cover your own rear end (even though the legal poo poo would hit the company and not you). Sirotan posted:Individuals can be fined and/or criminally prosecuted depending on the type of HIPAA violation that is committed so yeah if your boss asks you to do something blatant I wouldn't recommend recording your objections and carrying on with work. I wonder what would warrant an individual being punished for a violation? How blatant of a gently caress up would it have to be?

dennyk posted:No, your network guys are a bunch of idiots if they are literally not even making their configuration settings persistent. What is their justification for doing that, even? Do they just not know how, or do they think it's a bad idea for some crazy reason? "Normal" would be making persistent changes AND backing them up somewhere secure regularly so that you have the configs ready to go in case you need to replace a failed device or reload a config that someone broke. Ha. Our old network admin would at least save his changes, but wouldn't ever back them up. Cue him making and saving 40 different changes over a weekend, then like 6 things break. What did he touch? No one knows. Absolutely love this new Juniper gear I am working with. On every commit I have it dumping the config to an internal ftp server. It also holds the last 50 configs locally so I can roll back and compare quickly.
