websense is just a proxy, any standard proxy will bypass it completely, unless that ip is filtered for some reason. Oh high school days...

I hate clients who want to talk to you over the phone, so they can later mis-remember things you've said, or claim you said things you didn't. That, or when they want to talk over the phone to discuss horribly complex issues.

They should buy you your phone, if they refuse go find a WP 521 off ebay, etc for 50~ dollars and put it on the cheapest T-Mobile pre-paid plan, it'll be 50 dollars almost on the dot. Maybe 56 after taxes.

CitizenKain posted:T-Mobile service up here is really bad, Verizon is pretty much it if you want your phone to work more then in town. I've found some StraightTalk plans for cheap, I'm sure a Android 2.3 phone would be perfect for this. That is their problem, not yours.

Inspector_666 posted:One of the reasons I'm irrationally defensive of my ISP is that their customer service has been really good (well, the phone service at least, the in-person stuff is still awful.) The techs you get seem to have some modicum of technical training and more than that, actually get given the tools to help you resolve issues rather than just having to schedule a service call to get anything done. If you can get the T2/3 line techs to come to your house, they will fix poo poo the first time. These guys are actually employed by TWC and not third party contractors. Anytime you work with an ISP and the problem isn't resolved, call back in every 2~ weeks, and don't stop calling them and logging issues. Eventually some manager is going to get in deep poo poo and they're going to fix your problem come hell or high water. Don't ever let someone give you a personal number, or extension, always go through the bullshit of getting escalated. It leaves notes on the account, notes that can't be ignored for closure rates. 4 months calling, bitching to get a real line tech out, to figure out that our lines from the poll for our installation were hosed. Replaced cabling, outside, redid our inside cabling, and magically 99% of the problems went away.

Inspector_666 posted:Oh, I am not a TWC customer at home. Cablevision is my current ISP and also my parents', and I have never had trouble with them even when my father and I took the trap off of the line into the house when they moved since it was Friday night and we'll be goddamned if there's not gonna be TV over the weekend. You can still get line techs out for business. I have told a few friends to use the weather excuse (it gets crappy during weather) with TWC business connections and then they send line techs out and they do actual checking/work and fix problems. Instead of passing the buck. Its pretty amazing really. Its all about knowing how their poo poo works.

MC Fruit Stripe posted:They were trying to complain about California prices in order to come across as superior, so they said their sandwich, chips, drink and cookie cost $30. No it well didn't, so there's that. How many lunch beers can you have for 30 dollars? As someone who lives very far from a southern border of the USA, man, I wouldn't go to a sandwhich shop if I was in SoCal.

Issues affecting customers "production" websites, but they can't be assed to respond. I guess at least I'm not playing triage at over 100 tickets an hour, there was a dark time when I was handling 200~ tickets an hour for days on end. (50% new, 50% old). Sometimes the ticket system breaks and no one notices since it doesn't break completely. Then we get a flood of issues X days old, however long it was broken.

Pudgygiant posted:Really, really, really, pissing me off today: I work for one of the alleged top 100 places to work. One of my good friends works for an absolutely nowhere near the top 100 places to work company. He's getting a company-sponsored catered event at a really loving amazing beer place, where they're handing out company Christmas cash bonuses and Nexus 9s. We got an invitation to a bring your own plate potluck, where the winner gets a $25 Starbucks gift card, and that's all the Christmas bonus that's going around. Who the hell decides these "top 100 places to work" and what the hell do they judge it on? There are a ton of places that are on some best places to work list, they're run by a lot of different companies, and they're just surveys.

Are you the one doing the hiring? I passed this to a friend or two, and wanted to know if there was a secret code word they can include. They're also goons, they just don't post much.

I must have received at least 100 tickets about PCI compliance for our software package, the really short version is, its not. Why you ask? Because that's not what the software is for. Host our software on a subdomain or different service, and save yourself 100 of hours, because we're sure as heck not modifying it. Those go right up there with people who would run those free XSS/SQLi checkers against our products with 100's of false positives.

Glad you found it, I play local slack helper, I totes forgot about that setting as I disabled it ages ago (as soon as it turned up, I think) Blue Moonlight posted:All you fuckers keep suggesting things to fix or change in Slack, which is only going to distract them from their One True Mission: to force everyone to use Huddles. Internet Explorer posted:Huddles are great, use them all the time. Yeah, what's wrong with a huddle? Its a hell of a lot faster than spinning up a meeting room in other meeting softwares of choice, especially for the team. What's wrong with it exactly? xzzy posted:I guess my group is lower volume or uses threads wrong then? Because whenever someone replies in a thread and forgets to hit the checkbox the information isn't read by anyone. It's like comments in there got sucked into a black hole. Sure the 'Threads' category in the left list lights up but it doesn't seem to help. Buff Hardback posted:you’re 100% using threads wrong I have to agree here, the whole point of a thread is to let the topic go, without disrupting the main chat from the parties who don't need to get involved. I saw another product ages ago that let you have sub-discussions within a channel via hashtags or something, which is kinda what threads are? But not nearly as indepth.
