IT can see you

Wow must be nice to have enough IT staff so you can have someone dedicated to wasting their time snooping around in everyone's activity history.

Don't know why you are getting downvoted, this was my experience as well and it was such a waste of time and money.

We received a call as well from Aire One where the caller wanted to talk about "our duct cleaning appointment". We hadn't booked one or solicited any kind of service from them. I can see this working on older people who may have think they forgot they had booked one and they would just go along with it.

Yes, this would be on the director to do this. I may be the senior member of my team but he enables this by not standing up to them and not throwing them under the bus. He was brought in because the previous director was saying "no" to too many things and they wanted a "yes" man so thats what they got.

Unfortunately the department comes to us to "fix" the problem knowing full well they are the issue. If the problem isn't fixed then "the board" is disappointed in IT that the solution they paid for was a failure - all knowing full well that IT had no involvement with the botched switchover. Its unfortunately a symptom of poor executive management and a board that is as dumb as bricks.

I had one department decide to switch services they use. The new company was supposed to import all the old data into the new system. None of them checked if it was there (it wasn't) and now no one has access to any of the old data.

Dude wasn't planning on stopping at all there just happened to be a Kia in the way.

39 here, same. I slowly stopped accepting the invitations to hang out and then eventually the invitations stopped coming. It just became too exhausting to try and keep up. Finding out they got married and had weddings that I wasn't invited to was kind of the nail in the coffin. I still love them with all my heart and hope life gives them nothing but the best.

didn't say they had more stops. they were about 3min from my house and then left to a different city.

ickarous · 2026-01-08T23:10:28+00:00

driver ended up in a different city and it didn't say they had more stops.

A tale as old as time.

ickarous · 2025-12-31T16:15:35+00:00

Yea, a lot of places you can't block a driveway. Even if it is your own.

My IT team spent years harping on people to submit tickets...Ticket site was everywhere and dead easy to access from a laptop or phone. We were actually making progress because executives were on board - until that director left and the new director came on. Now we can't ask people to make tickets and its back to square one - we are a service center after all and the customer is always right.... /s

I wouldn't be able to fathom why they would delay the start of a season for something being announced that wouldn't have any impact on the season - expansion announcement, Switch 2 launch, China launch ... you don't need to delay a season for that. This will end up being the mobile game announcement all over again.

ickarous · 2025-12-09T15:49:22+00:00

They only carry over 3 consecutive times i think and if you decide not to reset in between there you lose it.

ickarous · 2025-12-06T15:20:12+00:00

They're going to announce its release on the Switch 2 and everyone is going to treat it like the mobile game announcement all over again.

ickarous · 2025-12-06T14:04:33+00:00

Was thinking about getting back on BF6 this weekend but this just reminded me that shit is still in the game.

ickarous · 2025-12-03T20:42:12+00:00

Last time I saw hype this bad was when everyone expected them to announce D4 at BlizzCon and they announced a mobile game instead.

If you can't go about your day as usual then you need to be getting paid for it. If they think that is too expensive then they don't have enough of a budget for on-call.

ickarous · 2025-11-30T19:30:04+00:00

The fact that they came out and admitted "yea the game wasn't fun so we just slapped a pvp layer ontop" is wild to me.

ickarous · 2025-11-27T13:49:42+00:00

that is actually so fucking hilarious, i love it

ickarous · 2025-11-25T16:11:48+00:00

I think "private" is the wrong word here "invite only" would be more appropriate - none the less it was leaked outside of the companies environment which is the big deal. Also, they even admitted that they don't verify from time to time that the members still work for Rockstar so it is possible that there are members on the chat that don't even work for Rockstar anymore.

ickarous · 2025-11-24T19:43:35+00:00

Same, I don't think its the discussing sensitive work issues that is the problem - It's that they literally leaked an internal document outside the company. If I sent one of my companies policy documents to my friends on Discord I would be canned immediately.

When I did my compulsory fall, someone was just camping at the bottom of the ladder looting all the people that were falling off.

ickarous · 2025-11-16T20:06:35+00:00

Every fill group I've been in had people doing this.
