All aboard the AI hype train
Now we are buying “AI powered” laptops we are going to rebrand the company to feature the term “AI”. All our product lines will feature the term “AI” together with everyone’s job titles. Did I mention we are a paperclip manufacturer?

I am so tired of having to edit permissions on O365 Mailboxes...
People keep askin me to go in and find things in the mailboxes, and I am so sick of changing permissions to let me in every time I need to do this, so I just spent like 2 hours clicking through the exchange online webpages to give myself Full Access and Send As Rights to every mailbox on our system so I don't need to go in and change it every time I get a request.
Side question, anyone else having trouble with their outlook opening really really slow the past couple days?

Typical reddit sysadmins not even telling you about the cert that makes money
Every damn day I see people on this shitty website, wannabe dions with their comptia certs and shit complaining they can't make any money. I see you clowns complaining all day about offshoring, H1B, and HR being the reason you can't get a job that pays the bills. When really its that you are focusing on the wrong certifications. Every dumbass dion has a comptia S+. You heard about how servers have licensing right, well its not what you thought. You need the only cert that will ever get you a job and you will find it RIGHT FUCKING HERE DAWG shit is a recession proof specialty with immediate demand and the cert is only $321.64 its cheaper than even one fucking Dion cert.

Why pay for pen testing when the coffee shop’s Wi-Fi is free?
Does anyone use a laptop in a coffee shop for non-nefarious purposes anymore? Rhetorical question of course. So carelessly and confidently open up your laptop, connect to the most ingenious named Wi-Fi connection you see, and let your new found friends do their worst. If your security department is worth their pay, they’ll soon be earning it.

Your Mission:
Find two MS licensing reps that answer the question "What is a CAL?" even remotely the same. I realize this is basically impossible, so if you can simply find two that don't contradict everything the other one said, you still win.

Ok, which one of you "IT Professionals" was at my office???
User just messaged me saying that a customer that works in IT saw BGInfo on the desktop and said it was "really dangerous to have that on the screen for everyone to see".
I guess he didn't notice the sticky note with the login password....
