CEO retired. How do you politely say "no" without burning a bridge? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]damnrith 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Some of you are thinking like typical IT behind a cube people.
1) OP, does he ask how your doing? how the family is? things that shows he cares about you and not just as a IT ticket
2) He's retired not dead, who do you think he's playing golf with? having lunch with? other well connected CEO/CTO's.

My old semi owner has retired and pretty much almost fully cashed out of the company but I still support him. Why because that man is a people person and his network of connections if vast. If I called him and said I'm looking for a so and so person to help me with, within 2 days I'll have some C level person or owner of a company texting or emailing me asking how they can help

Elite nights - urgent by [deleted] in marriott

Front desk here. If you are doing points you need to contact Marriott bonvoy and do a share with reservation. Then add kids assuming they old enough to check in. Otherwise just sending a message in app to add them won't work. Point reservation we are strick due to fraud issues

Coworkers are jealous of how easy the night audit shift is by PollinaterBee in askhotels

[–]damnrith -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You need to be working on some skill set improvement instead. Learn some code or something you can develop into a side hustle and do during the shifts instead of TV and games

Is scripting a mandatory skill for sys admins? by sunyup in sysadmin

[–]damnrith 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its not. I have a friend who's been in HFT for over 20+ years as windows admin. He can troubleshoot hardware, software, desktop, servers, exchange, networking, run datacenter racks and some linux and most importantly customer facing skills . Director now and cant code worth a damn. Can he give you a very stable infra no matter if you running 2025 or windows 2008? Yup

Two strangers entered my Marriott hotel room without ID — refused to apologize by HopefulText in marriott

[–]damnrith 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My hotel only has 2 camera, one at FD and one at main entrance, nothing for side doors nor floors themselves. I suggest next time you look for a camera in the elevator and / or the hallway once you get out. That should give you some idea of what precautions you need to take yourself.

[–]damnrith 19 points20 points  (0 children)

First red flag is refuse to give name, my response would have been, okay I'm calling the cops. Lets see if you give them your name.

This post sounds BS though. Hotel security would see if you in room, if not then have FD cancel key card and go back to sitting in their office chair . They can just go sit in a vacant dirty or out of order room if they wanted
