I had a user here about 5 years ago who was a Plant Engineer and apparently "certified" in CAD. He couldn't type in his 5-letter user name (first initial/last name). He couldn't remember his password from day to day.
He would call me *daily* to tell me that his computer didn't work. The first morning I went downstairs and turned on his monitor. The second day, I told him to do it. And he kept on calling. Every. Day. He didn't know where he saved his .dwg files. He didn't know how to open them when I found them for him. He lasted 18 months before they finally terminated him. -----Original Message----- From: Joseph L.

Shall we compare notes:) Recently I was called to a desk of a lady who was pissed off six ways to Sunday at me as she couldn't log in. She was typing her password into someone else's username, and proceeded to lock their account out? After that, another one gave me shit that she couldn't remember her login name that she had been using on her desktop daily for years and her iphone? I was like "Stare, blink, blink, stare..." My bad, I guess? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
