Silly Woodman! Are you not aware that lost productivity has no financial ramifications? There is no cost for anything unless someone must write a check for that specific purpose. /endsnark
I QUIT. Eat oatmeal till youāre in high school for all I care! Put whatever you darn well please in it!! Iām going to go take a nap! FOR THE NEXT THIRTEEN YEARS.
(Note: This is only something I wish to SAY, not DO, since the job I have is not something from which someone quits. So donāt worry, @Sig.
)
āFor every three things you think you are getting away with, you probably are only getting away with two. Good night son.ā
@Sunbeam; Sadly, some actually do quitā¦but Iām confident you are not that type of human.
Dear $damager
Video conferencing is FUBARād - I tried my best setting it up from scratch as it lost a lot of settings because some dimwit switched it off at the wall instead of switching it off via the management interface.
I know you got a video conference tomorrow, thereās nothing I can do, except wait for the technician to come out, prod and poke at the unit and see what got damaged and why.
kthanxbai.
The issue is on the local machine and here is proof. /me shows proof. The user needs his local IT person to fix it by either reinstalling the client or changing the file association. The user doesnāt have admin rights hence the reason to call his local IT person. THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO SO STOP FRIGGING CALLING ME! *

- this was actually all said just not quite this way.
Moved from the wrong threadā¦need more coffeeā¦
Itās not my fault you pissed off the previous Citrix Admin and he walked.
No, I really donāt want to do the job, I already have too much on my plate because weāre short staffed. But⦠since I have no choice in the matter whatsoever I suppose I must.
No, I know absolutely nothing about Citrix. In fact, Iāve never even used it.
No, donāt expect a new server farm with a fully tested and operational production system to be up and running in two weeks. Never.Fucking.Gonna.Happen.
You expect me to pull complete knowledge and understanding of a system instantaneously out of my ass? Nope. You need it now, hire a fucking consultant.
Office politics sureās a lovely thing.
Made a backup of $Project_damagerās laptop (email PST and documents).
Ex-$Project_damager phoned from new work, asked for a backup of his .PST as his backup drive went kaput.
$BigBoss said nein, heās not gonna get it.
Lovely.
@Boomer it sounds like you need to tap into one of the coffee pipes for a direct line if theyāre going to pile that BS on you.
Also Citrix is of the devil.
I am certain that I will get to utilize all this new SharePoint app development knowledge Iām gaining this week and roll out awesome applications for our company to use widely very soon.
Ohh, maybe you could come to our office and accidentally blow ours up.
Thou speakest truth.
Dear $Boss
Meh. Job hunting in progress.
So get stuffed.

Dear $Lusers
I canāt smell if a particular gateway is givening issues or not. You shouldāve phoned or emailed me, but you lot instead decide to sit it out and bugger off early today.
Bugger off the lot of you⦠Iām not impressed.
Itās been a decade (!!!) since I last used Citrix (at $Hated_Alarm_Job) ā over an ISDN connection, no less ā but the name still makes me recoil.
Sure, I can understand you had things to do, but what makes you think your time is more valuable then mine? I had to do some squirlly time-shifting to be here early so you could do the removal, and you didnāt show untill 20 minutes after I would usually be here anyway. Eff U, Eff U, your cool, Eff U!
For crying out loud, can you please tell the difference between āhaving trouble connectingā and ānot hearing any audioā? Every damn time, itās like this. The video conference connected, numb nuts, or else you wouldnāt be seeing anything so stop saying āweāre having problems connectingā.
I dunno. Weāre running it here with no problems. Granted that means someone else set it up years ago, knew what they were doing and future proofed it to some degree so itās been pretty tame. Now the upgrade weāre planning on doing may make me eat this postā¦
Dear $Project_Damager
Your use of crude, lewd gestures and rude language in office really is disgusting.
Granted, I do use swear words, but I tend to tone it down, and try to censor myself as far as possible (on forums), but not in speech or in front of other people.
So get your f**** butt outta the door on the top floor and jump down over the balcony, thereās a good chap⦠now THAT will give you reason to swear like a sailor.
OK, so now weāve established that you do not pay attention.
2 weeks ago, I said you could set up new user accounts for $system immediately, so that they were ready when we started switching users over. This week, youāre asking me if itās OK to start creating the accounts after the users should have already started using them!?
And now you ask me if I should get an assignment on a ticket, I tell you it canāt possibly be me and that it should be $other_group, and your response is ādo you need the assignment or do you know who did the task?ā Isnāt that what I just told you in the previous email?
