Dude, a CS degree from ten years ago does not entitle you to a clue now. Go back to cleaning stalls. BTW, what kind of company do you work for that lets mail room clerks check DNS servers? Or were those co-workers of yours during your six months in IT before everybody realized your MCSE was worthless? Either way, I'm not surprised.
or MORE likely a problem one of YOU caused
Ever wonder why there's such a thing as a help desk?
Because You need help, not us
If you could concretely point to something IT did to your computer, that's one thing,
but I'm willing to bet you don't have a clue as to what any two pieces of your computer do...
so your knee-jerk reaction is to blame the people who KNOW what they're doing?
that's like blaming a mechanic for the damage done to your corolla after off-roading to baja...
you sir, are a fucking idiot and deserve whatever you get from your outsourced help desk...get a clue douchebag
You're obviously not an electrical engineer, a plumber, or an IT guy
how about you get your hands on any of the above and tell me how "it all just works"
tool
Yeah, OK. My Favorite story of the year. Human resource dochebag "a" decides that outlook is an ugly complicated app, that slows down movement of large files (full of user data, ssn #s, sales data, etc) to HR douchebag "b". Their solution?
Install bitorrent, and post files back and forth to each other.
No shit.
And this was Pfizer. People were outeraged that their ID had been compromised, and wanted to know what we were doing about it.
Then they wanted to know why admin priveleges were revoked.
Can't have it both ways, kids. Either it works (mostly) and it's old and ugly, or it's hot and flashy and takes a shit-ton of resources to deploy and support. Give us the dollars and we'll hook it up.
P.S. I wonder how many of these "web 2.0" idiots realize that you can run winchat from the os? Or that simply creating a shared folder can take the place of youtube? Zero. All these marketing dudes have bought somebody else's marketing schpiel. Which is why desktop linux doesn't exist outside the IT department.
