You're sure you went to the right website? It's pretty clear-cut at http://www.gns3.com/ Edit: Remember that GNS3 is the company name as well as the product. Clicking "About GNS3" is the company profile.

It's still making the rounds today with people reply-all'ing with such insightful commentary as "Yay!" and "Good job team!". "Fantastic job, QA! ...Also please remove me from this mailing list, thanks."

Che Delilas posted:Uh, recruiter emails are not official job offers, and therefore should be considered entirely meaningless with respect to pay or benefits or anything resembling the truth at all, ever. Even if they had some kind of weight behind them, waving those in a current employer's face is not leverage, it's a direct threat. You might as well walk in and say, "If you don't pay me what <coworker is making> I'm gonna quit!" Even reasonable managers are probably not going to take that very well, and a lot of managers have paper maché egos. Don't do it. It does help show he's not getting paid market rate though. It's a gamble, however; your boss could take that as a warning that you'll be leaving asap.

Sounds a little scammy. At least, it's similar to the scam where a random company will call up under the guise of replacing supplies. Once you simply confirm the model of the printer you've got, they ship a shitload and pressure you to pay the invoice. Which makes this one extremely unlikely, considering the effort I guess.

Sylink posted:I also have the problem of I get some insane dude who was working on Unix since the 70s and is so overqualified we can't afford him. He might be overqualified on paper, but what if every single hiring manager made the same assumption as you? He might be completely desperate at this point.

Wizard of the Deep posted:What's better than an old, creaky Remedy system? An old, creaky Remedy system where half your tickets come in, and a newer, slightly less creaky Remedy system (still woefully out of date, mind you) where the other half comes in! I had to do that at the last MSP I worked at. Never loving again. The most frustrating thing about this was there wasn't really any reason why we couldn't switch over; the system was that the accounts/sales teams would take the calls and log the tickets; but they were trained in the new system for its sales component as well. They asked to be trained in the ticketing side for just an extra 20 minutes but were denied  Meanwhile, we were told to start using the new system immediately because they didn't want to renew our old system's licenses

A colleague of mine tried to get me to stay on the phone while he rolled a cigarette.

BaseballPCHiker posted:I honestly dont think our company is going down, there are zero signs of this. In fact are stock went up from like $25 to $30 in one day this week after our earnings call and they keep talking up growth and expansion. I just think there is some major reorganization going on. If I stick around until my options vest I can make some extra money and might even be able to get promoted depending on how things play out. From what I can tell, your reported problems are only really pertaining to the IT section of the business - The "CIO" sounded more like an IT Management Consultant IMO. If you think there's a good chance the *company* - and not the department - will stay alive, then by all means ride it out. But at the very least I would suggest you update your CV, put your ear to the ground and see what's out there. You don't need to worry about applying but it's useful to just refresh your mind once in a while.

skooma512 posted:Buyout of the client didn't go through, and as if that isn't bad enough, I'm responsible for my offsite location indefinitely Not if you YOTJ! Like I need to do. loving hell do I need to YOTJ. Our sales team is absolutely abysmal. To give some background, the small MSP I work for was bought out by the company next door 6 months ago, when we were circling the drain due to an insane director losing all our contracts. The management team was replaced and a new sales manager was brought in to drum up new business, and manage accounts. She is awful. 0 new clients in 6 months. Countless project fuckups, and has no IT experience at all. Any time a project/purchase goes to her, she will inevitably send me an email asking me what the product is, how much it is, who she should send the quote to. I did actually end up doing 100% of her job for a couple of projects, and just barely managed to get the commission for it following the fuss she caused. The crux of the issue is that all future payrises are tied to the performance of the sales team. I've been prepared to give them a few months to allow them to get up to speed, but as it stands I know I'm worth far more $$$ to them than I'm getting paid. Time to move on.

A somewhat quicker way to do this is to just hold the Windows key down and left/right arrow keys will snap the window to the monitor it's in, then left once more to snap it to the right side of the primary monitor.

myron cope posted:What is the point of a "connection broker" and a "gateway" in Remote Desktop Services? The broker decides what RD session host to send you to and the gateway just decides if you're allowed to connect at all? They sound like they should be one thing. Are they separate just for like a gigantic environment scenario? You need to set an address ("Farm.blah.corp") to point to the connection broker. Then, navigate to "https://farm.blah.corp/RDWeb" (Or whatever you've configured the remote access URL to be) - and from there you can download a special RDP file generated by the connection broker that will load balance across the farm correctly - You can then either send that RDP file out to users or tell them to go to RDWeb every time they want to log on. Having the CB and GW roles on one server is fine for the size of your organisation.
