11/3/2016 email to all users "We are migrating to a new environment 11/18. The system will be down from 5 PM 11/17 until some point midday 11/18. Please send me a time I can install a cert on your computer between now and then. This will take 2 minutes"
11/14/2016 email to all users "As mentioned last week...(same content as above). Only three users will be able to access the system on 11/18 unless you have the cert installed."
One co-worker stops me in the hall that afternoon "So when do I have to do what?"
11/16/2016 email to remaining five users not yet prepared "As we all know, I am not authorized to work the week of 11/21-11/25. All of you are. Here are the instructions to install the cert yourself. I am still available until 5 PM tomorrow to assist with this."
28 users total. 22 emails between 5 PM last night and 6 AM this morning "Why can't I get into the system?" 4 emails "I cannot get the instructions for installing the cert to work for me."
People basically suck. What sucks more is the fact that I am on forced leave (which I am actually looking forward to) and these folks will have no support because Management decided all non-essential personal could not work for two weeks through the end of the year...and announced it on 11/7/2016...after the go/no-go date for the migration.
me to boss: the hell? customer from Birmingham, AL sent email asking for help. it's 3:20 here, they're in Central time zone and close at 4
boss: so you're telling me the earth is spinning backwards?
me: the kind of day it has been, I wouldn't be surprised
It's not FREQUENT, but often get "Whole Office" emails like "The color printer on 5th floor is down", or "There's fresh fruit on the break room table" from someone in an office 500 miles away.
When they tell the boss I've been on Brewers friend making a recipe all day

Heh, reminds me of the time I was on a cross-country flight, and in the in-flight magazine there was an ad from a real estate company. The ad invited everyone to stop by their office, and gave a street address. No city or state. No phone number so you could at least try to narrow it down using the area code. Nada.
Can't imagine how honked off I'd be if somebody had wasted MY money on a useless ad like that!

Who ever thought it would be a good idea to let John/Jane Q Public schedule their own automotive repair online with no human interaction is a moron.
Arugh, stupid performance reviews. About as dumb as TPS Reports....
Had I known you were going to dredge up crap from 2 years ago, so you have something to complain about I would have been more verbose about your screwups this year that caused unnecessary work for everyone...I turned mine in on time, two weeks ago, you're just doing yours now?
I'll damn sure blame the network for network problems. 100% of the time
just had a problem with one of my customers the other day. our software would work on the server, slower than cold LME on the workstations.
ping the server, slow. now who decided a 4-person office needs their server on a different subnet?
hey, network guy... call me back when you got your poop in a group
Whoever set that up, in my book, does not qualify as a network guy
You have to TRY to fired around here.
Just got notice about our health insurance. (1) we're staying with the same insurance co this year (they jump from one ins co to another to save a few dollars). (2) if your spouse has insurance available where they work, they have to leave our plan and get their own... Cheapskates promised years ago that this would never happen....
