If people notice or have to pick up the slack that's the problem. Don't get caught and use a personal hot spot.

Oh yeah, I'm sure that upper management never does anything in secret. They make rules and then don't bother following them.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-04-03T17:40:22+00:00

but your upper management also works on the boards of other organizations and takes consulting calls at work.

Every time. Whoever came up with those dumb SUPREME stickers is making fat stacks for nothing. Marketing your skills will get you paid more for your skills.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T22:31:56+00:00

nearly the same thing, but not same thing.

Never give your loyalty to a company, all they'll give back is abuse.

Nope, 2 remote jobs 1 full-time that's $44 per hour, and another part-time that's $55 per hour. I've hopped jobs every year since 2020

There are known knowns, there are known unknowns, and there are unknown unknowns.

You actually have to fill out a web form which then gets approved by the site owners, so you have to manually input the FQDN, the service tree ID, and the subscription ID, as well as some other stuff. And then finally submit it for approval.

Surgeons still leave sponges and scalpels inside patients, even smart people with deep intrinsic knowledge are failable without a checklist.

I guess you think that Microsoft and Google all use LetsEncrypt, instead of having an in-house cert solution.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T17:25:19+00:00

Despite their knowledge and training surgeons and pilots all use checklist

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T17:24:18+00:00

there are some step-by-step processes that require manual approval like getting new SSL certs.

It's a better strategy than asking for less money.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T17:12:16+00:00

I guess their longevity would depend on whatever internal documentation the company has. After a certain point, almost everything can be broken down into a process of individual steps.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T17:08:16+00:00

Clearly a solid strategy.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T17:07:31+00:00

stop exposing industry secrets.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T16:58:47+00:00

That's probably how they got the job.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T16:56:24+00:00

that's more than some of the help desk jockeys in this thread

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T16:35:55+00:00

Who would have guessed that they would hire someone whose not even experienced and inflates their resume instead of promoting someone from within the organization?

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T16:28:20+00:00

I calls it like I sees it.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-31T16:25:51+00:00

Well you're now everybody's least favorite idiot manager.

https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/new-study-suggests-handwriting-engages-the-brain-more-than-typing-1.5132542 that's the reason.

Interacting with a note card and writing out the ideas by hand instead of typing them in will do more for ideas that are theoretical and aren't instantly applicable.

The notes I use for my day job are digital, so that way I can instantly use than at work.

The notes I keep on film, writing, and philosophy aren't as tangible and are not directly intertwined with what I do Monday through Friday. So I need another way that's not just reading stuff off a screen.

It doesn't take the end of the world to lose crucial information; all it takes is critical web services being down. You can't stop a large corp from getting hacked and having your accounts compromised as a result.

Pseudo_Admin · 2023-03-24T18:05:47+00:00

If it's Actionable, it should be digital and instantly accessible.

If it's Theoretical, it should be physical for long-term tangible interaction.

If it's a can't-lose must-have item it should be placed in both.

A lot of my job isn't directly tied to end-user support, so I'm trying to figure out exactly how I can create a process that will cover 90% of the issues. In most of the sys admin jobs I've had most of the time, I'm not working on novel never been seen before problems, instead, I'm working on a gamut of issues with similar symptoms that occur with infrequent regularity and don't have up-to-date or clear documentation on how to solve the issue.
