Er...so I still play this........... as above - starting it actually in 2013.
I have achieved my target and I'm now 100 years old in the game!
But it has not ended.
WTF
Even after a 10 years of playing it - I experienced a first, only yesterday - I was sacked - which has never happened...
Ah, you're dev. Well you still smell, obvs, but I think we were on about engineering (or I was).
As in... Manufacturing. Electronics, shop floor stuff. Folk in white coats, Asperger's etc.
Automated self service without governance. Jeez they heading into a car crash.
I did it for an MSP once, allowing firewall rules to be created - approved by non-techs. 🤣
Thank god I left
Manufacturing and engineering and awful for I.T.
Ancient apps, general tinkerers, knowledge in people's heads, nothing written down, want things bespoke, never see the big picture or how corporate IT governance is there for benefit of all, refuse to patch, refuse to restart or turn off, run a...

I don't rate Rory or Taylor. Hope he pies them off an gets the old band back together.
CT presenters didn't have creative freedom, I don't think. Was owned by a rich Asian dude or sommat?
AVD was the default for many, as Microsoft scared everyone with the enterprise licencing. Looks like they've been forced to start permitting licence use on other platforms. I think Amazon workspaces was allowed late last year.
what firewall experience we got?
what you using?
Was going to post something about VMware and the acquisition.
We are having issues all over the place. Can't get quotes, support non-existent and account managers absent.
Horizon platform up for sale, NSX dog s**t and this latest licence b****cks.
We need to f**k it all off asap. But it's so...
I don't think there is a thread for us nerds. Wondered if anyone fancied sharing anything they're doing/learning/found useful.
Or just chatting about the I.T challenges they're facing, certifications, roles etc.
I'm in networking. Have been for 20 years or so, cut my cloth in Windows 2000...
