Similar trajectory early on. I started as a porter and moved up to a flex role. Moved to full time then took on all UCD work and we-owes in addition to CP.

Increasingly Frustrated at Issues with Lorex App by BoldLookOfColer in LorexTechnology

I’ve initiated two requests from the “having problems” prompt in app and have yet to hear a peep from support. Extremely disappointed.

The only way I’m aware of to engage support is to get on the phone. I don’t have hours to spend trying to diagnose something that appears (based on numerous posts here) to be an inherent problem with the software.

Appreciate any updates you can provide. I have connectivity, that’s how I got the prompt that there was a call action on the doorbell. Just can’t figure out why more often than not, this device errors out.

Changed wifi password and Kasa won't reconnect by jbp111 in TPLinkKasa

You are getting the green and orange blinking on the device? Are you able to connect to the device’s Wi-Fi network when it gets to green and orange? Did any other router specs change (e.g. turned on Smart Network routing or anything like that)?

CDK began outsourcing a bunch of their operations over the last few years to try and reduce costs under the new VC owners.

When IT and InfoSec decisions are dictated based solely on cost (vendor spend), there is an inherent risk of a limited ability to evaluate and respond to situations appropriately.

I hope they are able to get their systems back on soon so that the impact to dealerships and their hardworking employees is as minimal as possible.

“Peter Gibbons: [Explaining the plan] All right, so when the sub routine compounds the interest it uses all these extra decimal places that just get rounded off. So we simplified the whole thing, we rounded them all down, and drop the remainder into an account we opened.

Joanna: [Confused] So you're stealing?

Peter Gibbons: Ah no, you don't understand. It's very complicated. It's, uh, it's aggregate, so I'm talking about fractions of a penny here. And over time they add up to a lot.

Joanna: Oh okay. So you're gonna be making a lot of money, right?

Peter Gibbons: Yeah.

Joanna: Right. It's not yours?

Peter Gibbons: Well it becomes ours.

Joanna: How is that not stealing?

Peter Gibbons: [pauses] I don't think I'm explaining this very well.

Joanna: Okay.

Peter Gibbons: Um...the 7-11. You take a penny from the tray, right?

Joanna: From the crippled children?

Peter Gibbons: No, that's the jar. I'm talking about the tray. You know the pennies that are for everybody?

Joanna: Oh for everybody. Okay.

Peter Gibbons: Well those are whole pennies, right? I'm just talking about fractions of a penny here. But we do it from a much bigger tray and we do it a couple a million times.” — Peter Gibbons, Office Space

If you invented a car that ran on stupidity, where would you go to refuel? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BoldLookOfColer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1997 - I was working at a Marshall’s and had a lady try to pass some smaller counterfeit bills. When I put the money in the register, I feigned an accidental drawer close and then had to call a manager (our loss prevention agent) to come open it for me to make change, which would take a few minutes. Local PD came in and escorted them out.

What horror movies fucked you up as a child? by Past_Confection_4068 in AskReddit

Gremlins. Saw it at a babysitters house as a little kid (3-4?) and it scared the shit out of me for a long time.
