Watching RoboCop after a stressful day.
Went to setup a new site. Install MPLS router and PC's only to find the line was faulty and router won't stay up for long. So started PLAN B, finish it off tomorrow then off for a 3hr drive home

Provisioning a new user account... email and all that.

Driving home from St. Louis and dealing with my 11yo causing drama.

Better than a 9 year old setting a house on fire and killing 5, being charged with murder.

Dealing with insurance company, got rear-ended on the way to work this AM.

Just finished submitting my order to my bosses for Windows Server 2016 with 36 Cal Licenses( 20 terms, 15 tablets) for this site I'm installing called "Great Shots" in SF SD -
Apparently - and this is what pissed me off yesterday - We only us "Real Servers" (as my boss calls them) when we have a site of 10 terminal...
I started to say we should have been doing this since the beginning and was cut short by boss thinking he knows more than me...
\
Any advice (other than leave the job - I've applied to a few places and plan on calling to follow up later today. ) on setting up this Server 2016?

Windows Server 2016
Why 2016? You'd want to get 2019 and if you really had a requirement, you'd install 2016.

What is a "Real server" to your boss? A physical installation? If so, setup Hyper-V and then build your installation on it. It's a real server, configured how it should be configured.

"real Server" = Server OS to my Micro Manager (boss)

Good luck, you can't even buy CALs for Server 2016... Only the current version. (of course they are backwards compatible)

@bnrstnr even better

So RedHat isn't a real OS, or Fedora, or OpenSuse or FreeBSD or any other OS? lol

Beats the shit out of me - We deal only with Windows - So Windows Server OS's? IDK he's weird.

That's what I was getting at. . you can't purchase old, you get downgrade rights for sure, but they don't sell old stuff

This is completely outside the topic of conversation - I'm guessing to his boss - those things simply don't exist.

New GM of the branch, Yes.
My boss (in this respect) is the Department manager/Micro Manager
