Super Slash posted:Well this thread escalated quickly; I was just going to complain about a new person who can't figure out how to use our phones, and consistently puts calls on loud speaker for the first few hellos then to headset mode. I hate nothing more than this. I'm so glad my new boss is on-board with the notion of getting rid of poo poo, because we have a ton of worthless crap we don't need. We have ~100 PCs company wide, and probably 400 extra mice / keyboards in varying refurbished states, plus modems, switches, routers, monitors, 128 mb sticks of memory, power strips that were probably bought in a gas station in the 1990s, etc. etc. Our end-users don't want reused poo poo we recovered from a closed store, and I don't want to get called every other weak because the replacement we put in was used and went bad too. Budget a little more for replacements and throw this poo poo out and save the difference in labor costs and happier end-users.

Beefstorm posted:So, if we have 6 IT staff, banned from thread? A new desk was installed some time ago, and the store couldn't print suddenly. Hop in the car, get to the location, check the connection. Huh, this printer has two Ethernet cables plugged in? I follow one back, behind the desk, down to the floor, around the bend, back up towards the PC... and straight over to the printer.  Not gonna print much plugged into itself folks.

Spreadsheets and word documents here.  I've been doing my best to keep things up to date and organized, but man it's gotta be a skill to write documentation that is comprehensive while also concise and understandable to newcomers in 4 years without further explanation. Especially concerned given that we're a two man department so "IT being wiped out by a car" is a very real possibility.
