I can't blame the customer here. Ya, that's the USB in the Ethernet port.

When I run and crimp cables I always get super horny. How do I stop?

Bahahaha! 😂😂 Worked for the HQ of a Fortune 500 company. Department went to lunch that Friday and began talking about what prep they had done (none). One guy had bought a few cases of water with his sister.

I lived 1:40 from work and told everyone if the world blew up and they could get to my house we’d eat until it ran out. I mentioned having 450lbs of potatoes under the floor. I drew a map to our house before leaving that afternoon, and made copies for the most gracious, appreciative people ever.

The boss said, “If the world doesn’t end, I want you all back here in the morning.” (only Sat we worked in 3.5 years). From Jan 1, 2000 on they occasionally laughed me to scorn, particularly over the potatoes. “You gonna start distilling vodka?” 😂 When I had enough I’d remind them how groveling and gracious their scared little eyes were on 12/31/1999. 😅

One guy got a screen shot of a navy website which read 1/1/19100 for the date. It was fixed in a few hours. We had been prepping code and testing for months, so we didn’t really expect a disaster on our stuff.

I grew up in the country. I didn’t know anyone without a few 100lbs of potatoes and 2-3 months worth of canned goods. 😂 The poorest people I knew had lived through the Depression. They had a stand of lard and flour cabinet (flour and corn meal) if they had nothing else.

Good times. 👍😎

Maybe swap out some production hardware or change some DNS settings.

Also it is a great time for updates

Part of my email which I sent to the department (nearly 200 people, including the VP) said "...and then we can overcome our obstacles", but for some reason I wrote it "and then we can overcome our testicles". This just happened. I have no idea what to do now. Please help!

Like all the best technology departments, I'm a one man army rockstar. That's a problem when I'm a bottle of everclear deep into my holiday plans, and I don't think I can get away with hiding another replacement cellphone in the budget if I throw mine in the lake again.

So how do you guys keep everything running while you're out?

What is wrong with the workers of today?!?!? They all seem to fear death and aren't willing to die to protect the company. They just run away instead of fighting to protect company assets.

We had a security event and I ordered all the IT staff to take up arms and to protect the data center. Almost all of them refused. What the heck guys! I need you to fight to protect. It is just a little fire fight after all.

I want to spread my WiFi all over the building. How do I do that?

Update: fixed
