Today at work:
Something stopped working over the weekend.
The question shifted away from "Why did it stop working?" to "Why did it work before?" Within 1-2 hours. #justITthings

Actually, the mailserver is working fine, the email:

1) is in your Junk folder, which you never review for false positives

2) is in a subfolder, due to a rule you forgot about or wrote poorly

4) is moved/deleted/junked due to an errant keystroke

5) never arrived at our server due to the sending server's horrid misconfiguration

5) was quarantined by our server due to the sending domain's horrid misconfiguration

6) is in your main inbox – the problem is that you need a break

3 godziny sprzątania komputera, wyczyszczone wszystkie wiatraki, wymienione pasty, nawet karta graficzna nie uniknęła rozkręcenia.

Oczywiście po włożeniu z powrotem Ramu działał. To jak ze śrubami które zostają po naprawach. Tego nie da się uniknąć.

Tak sobie rozkręciłem tego laptopa, i stwierdzam że jak poprzedni serwisant dostał pieniądze za to co jest zrobione to powinien zostać pozbawiony praw do wykonywania zawodu...

Just helped a user with a ticket claiming their Wi-Fi was cutting out. Their actual problem? Their computer wouldn't wake from sleep. Please don't just randomly select a piece of terminology and expect me to know what you're talking about. #justitthings

My boss ordered a part for one of our printers last week and it still hasn't arrived.

I call Wednesday and they tell me 1: the part was only ordered Tuesday and 2: it'll be here by today.

I call again today only to be told that the part is on backorder and there's no ETA.

WTF

Just got spooked by the clock because the computer I'm remoting to is in a different time zone.

Didn't think I would ever have to tell someone not to place magnets onto their small form factor PC but here we are. Computer wouldn't boot, go down to check it out. Find two magnets on the top of the case right over the CPU fan. 😐 #it #justitthings

It's one of those days where I need to pause for several minutes and take VERY DEEP SLOW BREATHS before responding to emails. #JustITThings

Best unblock request though was “please unblock ITV Hub, I really need to watch Love Island” Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Da sucht man Wochen lang einen Fehler auf den eigenen Firewalls und dann stellt man fest, der Provider hat sein Routing geändert und Announced garnicht mehr den IP-Bereich. 🤦‍♂️

Habt ihr auch so Kollegen wo ihr immer ein genervtes "ooooooar neee. Nich der schon wieder" von euch gebt, wenn eine Benachrichtigung von ihm reinkommt?
