  • @1984 the one guy I will remember forever was the manager who tried to make problems for us on day 1 of his employment.

    I had processed the request for his windows accounts the week before.
    Then he got his account and tried to make a big problem about not having all accesses. He decided to loop in management and board in an insult-filled email.
    He got told noone was allowed to work on his stuff until he apologized to us, then got fired.
    I processed his account deletion two days later.


  • @1984 you know, over time i met so many people who were dumb, but I often just try to forget about them because it just depresses me.

    Yes, I worked in IT support. And I don’t even just mean customers, some of the dumbest people were colleagues. Some of them on higher levels, so they earned way more than me as well. Often I think I am the idiot to my colleagues.

    You don’t know what’s going on with people in their lives. Although I still don’t think outright maliciousness should be acceptable


  • @Buffalox completely discarding multiple sources written by multiple people saying the same thing as evidence because you decide on a whim they don’t count is not a reasonable position.
    They might not be good evidence, but they still are evidence.

    This always seems to be nothing but a kneejerk reaction to all those Christians claiming the Bible is god-given truth.

    “Oh no, let’s disregard everything written in this amazingly preserved textual corpus because I want to hurt those meanies”








  • @ageedizzle first thing I thought about when I read that question: the time when I time-travelled into the 50s.

    I did not actually time travel, but I visited a small town in Germany, in my home area actually, that somehow had managed to pass through the 50 years before, seemingly without being affected. I was looking down main street and there was nothing there that betrayed we were in the 2000s. 1/2
