@Mycroft At least that would be interesting

Venting about work (3) 

@zetasyanthis He's already in the loop, and so completely overwhelmed by all of the things being forced down his throat...

Our whole team has been making a lot of noise about how shitty the company policies are, and my boss has already pissed off the higher ups by trying to stop them from shooting us all in the foot

This really feels like the beginning of the end of our department

@literorrery Thanks, hon.

I'm being bent to the breaking point. When they start enforcing these restrictions on my coworkers it'll either get better because they'll be forced to fix these bugs, or it'll get bad enough that I'll either
a) be cut off from my team and eventually let go 'cause they can't accommodate me, or
b) my team will all quit out of frustration.

And of course this all happens literally the two weeks following closing on a house I can barely afford...

@confusedcharlot I opened a ticket with tech support and let my boss know I was being cut off from tools I needed to do my job. He's on it

@Yarideki I'm sure blocking Microsoft Teams was some kind of mistake on the InfoSec team's part but still

Venting about work (3) 

Today I found out that the company blocks access to Microsoft Teams -- which was the suggested alternative to Slack when my request to unblock Slack was denied.

Also I found out when talking to the helpdesk that they don't use the company provided tools for security reasons(!!!) and guess what they use?

That's right! Slack!

I almost literally cried in frustration today. I started tearing up and got up and made tea and watched stupid shit on YouTube for a while instead

Dragoneir escaped again today and is now in gay baby jail (a smaller enclosure with a locking lid) for the next couple hours while I clean so I can transfer them to my older appropriately sized enclosure with locking lid + extra locks 🙄🙄🙄

@Goldkin That... that's insane! o.=.o

That's 5 times the cost of grid power!

AWESOME! :D

*looks at card*

@Mycroft I mean, if nothing else, it has the potential to be the most interesting interview of my LIFE

@zetasyanthis Hoooooly shit. They didn't even go the office365 route (which includes free live archiving which doesn't add to your counted storage totals)?!
