Why do users always associate unrelated problems?

Can someone explain this to me? Got an email this morning: I can't sign into a meeting; when I try on the web I get an error. [Screenshot is inserted] If I try another way, I get a different error. I just updated everything yesterday so my developed apps run from another folder, so this may be the issue. Not sure. YOU DON'T FRICKIN' SAY?!?!? Suddenly you know my job better than I do because those things are OBVIOUSLY related. Your ability to open Zoom or Teams or whatever the fuck meeting you were trying to open is inherently affected by the fact that you run your own custom developed apps from a random folder. Yep, that's gotta be it. Just going to need you to get a 5# sledge, your laptop, and a tree stump, then put those 3 things together, got it?

IT isn't bloody.

So, I'm having some mentoring sessions with a c-level exec at my company and we were talking about setting boundaries with respect to people asking for help on the fly (as in passing by in the hallway, or on your way to take a shit). I made the comment about my girlfriend not being able to say no to clients at work and he lays this gem on me: Servers don't tend to bleed out while you're gone. So yeah, I think I'm going to enjoy my lunch breaks just a *little* more now... (Oh, and my girlfriend is a veterinarian, which he knows. That would probably help that make more sense.)

Click to run? More like click to fuck off...

Ah Office 365. Double ah to Click to run (C2R) versions of Office. Apparently you can't install C2R if you have a non-standard office suite application (I'm looking at you Visit and Project) installed via MSI package already. You have to uninstall it first or the C2R installer fails without warning. Who does that? (And by that I mean leave no error message.) And on top of that, you need special licenses (aptly named C2R-P licenses) so that you can deploy the MSI versions alongside C2R installs. Anyone have a 5-pound sledge...? ~Me
