      Yep. And if I were in charge of my company we would be dumping every Microsoft product right the fuck now because of it. However I’ve still got to wait for one more person to get tired of working here and to quit and then I will be the IT director and we can kick Microsoft to the curb.

      Although realistically the people that actually own the company won’t let me do that but you know I can dream right?

        I love the deer-in-headlight look of non-essential IT staff like yourself after money folks bring me in as a consultant. Scared of deploying registry changes? Don’t understand how to manage expectations? Haven’t kept up with changes? Not a problem.

          If your consulting skills are on par with your reading comprehension skills I am not afraid in the slightest.

          Just to clarify, there is the IT director and then there’s me and then there’s all of the other it employees in the entire company (about 50 people).

          And we don’t hire jackass consultants who barely managed to get their GED and had to be dragged out of their mother’s basement to show up and make fun of us.

          We actually laugh when your sales people call us thinking that they’re going to make a quick buck doing some bullshit work that we’ve already got under control.
