A bunch of people are being super shitty to me because it's my last week and they know they won't have to interact with me. It's sad because I treat people very well and bend over backwards for everyone but no one appreciates it here. It's sad. More of a reason for me to look forward to leaving though. Onwards and upwards

@wirestyle22 You only ever realize how people are when they find out they don't have to deal with you any more.

Same here on Chrome. I was wondering what was going on.

@DustinB3403 These people have the worst sense of entitlement I have ever seen. They are getting all up in arms because they don't want a cable on the ground that no one can ever trip over and isn't even noticeable unless you are obsessive compulsive. I am buried in work because it's my last week but no please. Let me stop what I'm doing to drive 30 minutes out to your site to plug in an Ethernet cable.

I might need to just restart the server. Maybe something weird has happened.

I would just... ignore them.

I'm trying. Normally this stuff doesn't bother me but these specific people I've gone above and beyond for so many times. Everyone expects infinite patience from us and are willing to give none in return.

But you are done, you can literally deprioritize them into the nether regions of "never happening."

Yeah I said I don't have time and we don't have a cable the length that they need. Neither does Best Buy or any other overpriced local store. I then linked them to a website where they can order what they need and said you just need to plug it in. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Mine is working on Opera. Maybe it's just on shitty browsers?

So SW believes that there is nothing shorter than 40-50 hours of work per week. I realize that Americans tend to be skewed on these things, but this seems really extreme.
Just another example of how they want a specific answer in their polls so design the polls without the possibility of honest answers in many cases.

IMO it depends on how you set everything up and how much control you have over what is put into your infrastructure. It's possible to automate a lot of what we do.

@MattSpeller If it's not a pink 63 impala with the top down I'm not interested

Good grief - flatulence today is excessive
I love vegetarian week for dinners each month but the beans.... oh god the beans....

they are fixing the poll now. This has been a major issue with their polls in the past. Most polls seem to be sponsored by someone and go something like this...
Theoretical Poll Sponsored by Microsoft:
Q: When do you plan to upgrade to windows 10?
A1: I already have!
A2: Any Day! Can't Wait!
A3: Waiting till SP1 comes out!
And then later a post comes out and says "100% of IT Pros to move to Windows 10 in next six months from SW Poll."
