I had somebody email me on Christmas morning complaining that their home printer wasn't working. I was out of the country, and more than happy to ignore her and let my autoreply inform her to email helpdesk@companyname.com (she still hasn't).

My teammate is trying to replace an HDD with an SSD in a PowerEdge T310. Problem is, the mounting bracket offsets the SSD from the SATA plugs, see this pic comparing it with an HDD:



Is there a suitable bracket or another solution?

EDIT: It looks like this might do the trick: https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Mounting-Bracket-drive-CSSD-BRKT1/dp/B0090UG55A

This ain't a desktop computer, it's gotta connect to a backplane. In any case, I ended up doing this:

However the RAID controller doesn't recognize it. Back to the drawing board.

In my company, the upper level sales people get a laptop with one dock, and one charger to travel with.

Since we're switching from Dell's E-Port Replicator to the USB-C docking stations (the D6000), we're also phasing in newer laptops that can charge by USB-C. So it's only the users who have an older laptop with a newer dock (say because their old dock died) that need an extra charger. Otherwise, those with a BD fund can also buy their own extra charger.

gently caress people that use Random Capitalization in their messages. I really want to reply "no, it is Not greatly Appreciated"

"This is a new message for me - I am not sure if this is a VIRUS so am not opening it. Can you confirm please?"

"I didn't reply at all. Will BLOCK the sender now. Thank you - as it looked suspect.'"

That was an in-ticket conversation between the user and someone else. I then assigned myself the ticket, close it with the note "No action needed", and then the user replies with the following which reopens the ticket:

"HANDLED - no need for a call"

A few jobs ago, some nice old man kept reopening a ticket by responding to the closure notification email with "thank you". He must've reopened it 7 or 8 times. We reworded our close email shortly after that.

Just had a guy do that a few weeks ago, until I emailed him and bluntly told him to stop (and why). He got the message after that.

How are tickets submitted? If the ticketing system has a web portal, make them use that and mark some fields as required, where they have to enter details. Even from a dropdown menu is a start.
