Stressing over a work decision where I have no information to make a decision.
And you are stuck with the decision because....?
The folk above me are fighting over control of various parts of the IT department. I've been told the teams are being broken up and moved to different areas of the larger business. There will be two IT areas - and I've been asked which I want to go to. But, I've not been told what I will be doing for either. I don't know what the job will entail, the results I need to provide, what I need to perform or the technology I'll be using, who the team are, if I will be managing and leading a team like I do now, none of it.
So, I am being asked to pretty much flip a coin as I know nothing about each role on either side. How can they ask me which I want to take without any data to make that choice. Hence, stressing about it.

Go to the US, this is the time to go. Huge shortage of workers. People will actually fight over you.

I'm working for a US company remotely from the UK. I would like to visit the US, but not live. I think I've decided which route to take now though based on one reason. My current boss will be moving to side 1, and he is sometimes like a micromanager, so I'm going to take my chances with side 2, which I know nothing about. Worst case, job hunt.

One of these just showed up here at the office:
Only in a portal solution. ... I think it'll fit in the back of my truck. not that I really need it.

Is it just me or is Curiosity Stream the new History Channel?
I see so many of their ads and it always seems like they are on the verge of blaming aliens for everything.

@travisdh1 That works! I haven't had to dig into logs in a while...
Today we're doing AD cleanup and deleting old things that are no longer needed. I just deleted ~300 servers from our Computers OU. I hope they aren't still in use, lol.
I'm not perfect at cleanup - but damn - 300 servers.
How many users you have to delete? 1000's?
ha ha ha. If only. We just migrated from Google to O365 for reasons that are above my pay grade, and we just killed just over 40k former student accounts.
40,000, holy crap. Over how many years do those accounts span?
i'm working in a school atm, it has 6 students.
So that would be like 800 years for you. LOL
If you mean deleting them by hand, then yes. Fortunately, we have Google GAM that can kill the old ones for us.
