Your buddy lied or had a stupid physician. They're called STD's for a reason.
Just because he left out the partner he had on the bench doesn't mean he lied.

Hahahaha! I'm really good at this!

Dammit. I don't know what caused this incident, but in the three years I've been in Seattle it really seems to be getting worse with the mentally unstable and homeless. Our doorman at work has to kick people out of our doorway every morning from sleeping there. It's so frustrating to live in such a great place that has this enormous problem, too.

I just spent 30 minutes hunting for a missing folder in a client's Outlook. Turns out he renamed it "L".

I don't know why, but that made me laugh harder than it should have. I feel badly that I benefited from your agony.

Owch. Still, better than searching the entire network storage tree for a folder someone moved because they don't know how to click& drag and had multiple explorer windows open.  Microsoft, when will "read only" permission also apply to folder movement, not just renaming. You bastards.

Ooh, I had someone accidentally delete a critical file off their share drive a few weeks ago and get really upset when I couldn't just restore it from their recycle bin. I was able to restore it from a backup, but boy were they angry at me.

First world pet peeve: when people fuck up quotes on social media. If someone's said it, it was likely recorded correctly somewhere on the internet. What you posted was literally never said in that movie by that character.

Not sure why Georgia has Chik-Fil-A instead of Coca-Cola.

As someone who does not live in Georgia, but has driven through it many times, I associate Chick-fil-a with Georgia more than I do Coca-Cola. They're at every flipping stop we make on the way to Florida.
Also: Helpdesk complaining time again. This time, a NASA employee actually titled as part of a mission project.
NASAdoof: I need help with your app. Me: Happy to help; I just need to know which device and OS you're using. NASAdoof: You're not helping me. I need help with your app. Me: Sorry for the confusion. I'd like to help, just give me your device specs. NASAdoof: Sigh. All I want to know is if your app can load on my phone. Me: Sure. What phone and OS do you use? NASAdoof: What don't you understand? I just want to use your app.
I'm not sure how to answer and still have a job tomorrow.

You don't, you spread that shit all over Reddit because anyone that dense shouldn't be working at Nasa and I'm sure they'll handle it.

Some of the confusion is on us. We're running two different versions of our primary app, one for iOS 6 and older, the other for iOS 7 and newer. iOS 7 required a new build, so we built a new interface for it, too.
But still, just answer the dang question! I can give an exact answer if you give me the exact information.

Lots of room to play if you get things on the cloud? There's very few particles/ positions if you move to the cloud?

It's my problem at the moment. Group of us are just going to upgrade the major components tomorrow and see if that fixes things. Also convinced the HP SAN team to upgrade their switches.

I'm sure, but my budget authority is about $200 and oh covers design tech. I'll let the info systems and network guys know.

My point was illustrating my approval authority. I has none.  (not toally true, $200 will get the add-ons requested for production software and custom fonts.) The guy above me can do up to a grand and then it goes to the head of accounting for up to 5k. After that it's the CEO up to 10k. Beyond that needs approval of the equity partners. I'm not an IT lead at a technology firm. I'm 2nd in a department of a creative firm.
