@1984 you know, over time i met so many people who were dumb, but I often just try to forget about them because it just depresses me.
Yes, I worked in IT support. And I don't even just mean customers, some of the dumbest people were colleagues. Some of them on higher levels, so they earned way more than me as well. Often I think I am the idiot to my colleagues.
You don't know what's going on with people in their lives. Although I still don't think outright maliciousness should be acceptable
@1984 the one guy I will remember forever was the manager who tried to make problems for us on day 1 of his employment.
I had processed the request for his windows accounts the week before.
Then he got his account and tried to make a big problem about not having all accesses. He decided to loop in management and board in an insult-filled email.
He got told noone was allowed to work on his stuff until he apologized to us, then got fired.
I processed his account deletion two days later.
So they kicked out the new manager? That's actually cool.
@1984 I assume it was because he looped the whole board in. They kicked him out and made us process his account deletion almost immediately. Normal was two weeks grace in case there was a mistake (it happened more often than you'd believe that someone put in a request for deletion of someone still working).
No, in this case all his accounts were gone in two days
