2547. Subject: Fwd: Windows Left Open- Close them Hello everyone: With the warm weather, I understand the desire of people in rooms with windows that open, to open them to enjoy the warm spring air. However, we have had two instances in the last 24 hours of people leaving their windows open and having birds enter the room. In one case the window was open long enough for a pair of pigeons to make a nest and lay and egg (not to mention other biological functions) within the room. Please if you open the window in your room make sure it is closed before you leave. Windows left open are not only a security risk, but also become an entry point for Birds, hornets and other insects, vermin and in the past the odd raccoon. Please ensure your window is closed at the end of the day. [By :Icelator / 2013-05-07] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email Comments I figure the thought of leaving a window open long enough for birds to make a nest would allow some good puns from the bad eggs here. -Icelator Are you sure you aren't egg-agerating the time it takes to do that? -spectreoflife Oh, come ON, there's gotta be an Angry Birds joke in there somewhere! -udoshan there would be if you turned on the firewall -stiffarm The building has windows that open, but no screens? -thx1138 The building has windows but now blue screens? Egg-traordinary! -ecoli now == no -ecoli

2546. Subject: Pics or It Didn't Happen! Entering e-mail addresses collected at the convention last week, and adding a new Chinese contact. While his first name is Dong and that's comical, it's his e-mail address that actually made me laugh: superdong@provider.com.

2545.

I have chiselled it in accordingly. Humbly, Bloke [By :Bloke / 2012-10-11] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email

2544. Subject: Win7 Updates "When you get a moment come by and install my updates on my PC. That ICON on the task bar is annoying it keeps flashing." So I go to the users PC. The "icon" is a taskbar item that had he clicked it, it would've stopped blinking. And the windows was just a alert that drivers had been installed for his graphics card that he could've closed himself. That was fun. [By :ravensentinel / 2012-09-21] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email Comments On the plus side, that's one more closed ticket for your stats? -NightSteel I have two words..job security :-) -notyouagain

2543. Subject: I must have ESP Customer email: Application XXX is not working, please fix. I will be out of the office all day. What part of the application is misbehaving? What is the error message? What is your mobile # so that I can ask you questions? Turns out, the user wasn't logging in correctly. [By :ecoli / 2012-08-06] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email Comments We get these tickets all the time. Today, in fact, a user neeped about not being able to find a printer on her list. Turns out, despite three e-mail blasts from my boss to all users, she still didn't understand the concept that 1) our old print servers were taken down 2) the names of the printers changed. And she was wondering why she couldn't print to an old printer name on a server that didn't exist anymore. -skippytpodar Consider yourself lucky to get that much information! All I get is a chorus of "I DIDN'T DO IT!", ad nauseum... -ChildofCthulhu Heh, my response to the "I didn't do it!" crowd would probably be to ask why they were concerned about it then. -spectreoflife I just like the ticket "Printer doesn't". What more information do we need? -Holdfast

2542. Subject: Raven (2) "Please create folder XYZ in the ABC application folder." Look lady, if you don't know how to do basic computer functions yet your desktop is littered with files and folders....just die. [By :ravensentinel / 2012-07-11] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email Comments It been my experience, that the more crap files and folders a luser has just floating around the less likely they knew how they created them. -DarkRookie And all their folders are named New Folder, New Folder (2), New Folder (3), .... -concept14 ...on the Desktop. -Voz Long time reader, finally decided to break silence because of this one: I once had a luser who had not only "New Folder", "New Folder (2)", "New Folder (3)" but also "Copy of New Folder (2)", Copy of New Folder (2) (2)", "Copy of New Folder (2) (3)" etc.... All of which were empty! -RealUnimportant

2540. Subject: ADobed PDF Spell Check "The Adobe Spell Check function does not work in my Adobe Reader. Please enable it." Ummm, no. [By :ravensentinel / 2012-07-11] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email Comments Sounds like one of those users who complain that Acrobat Reader does not allow them to edit files, considers words ability to create them is insufficient but refuses to pay for the full Acrobat creator. -Holdfast "Well, Ma'am, "Reader" reads. "Creator" creates! Use the right tool for the job." -Voz

2538. Subject: rma rma [my comment here... you figured out how to get the form to submit without a model number. Maybe you can figure out that we might want to know /what/ you want to have replaced?] [By :linuxmatt / 2012-06-15] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email

2537. Subject: Sure, I'll get right on that... "User is requesting a printer for $room. He states that he prints out classified documents and does not need to walk to get them." [By : skippytpodar / 2012-06-14] [Top] Comment on this Customer Email Comments No problem - buy the bastard a skateboard. -Gromit There are at least a dozen desk printers here within a 15 second walk of a networked printer for that exact reason. Pisses me off as well. -Puggiman " Shirpa or servant requistion is beyond IT dept scope. Please contact H.R. if transporation is required, please contact H.R, Facilities and travel dept" -Harm For us, literally the only person in the entire building with a security clearance equal to or higher than ours is the chief of police. Everyone else in the building, even the director of the whole facility, has a clearance lower than even our lowest paid IT tech here. So yeah, we're wondering what sort of classified documents this cat is printing. -skippytpodar Then you have the whole red/black separation issue to worry about as well, with the whole SCIF issue to deal with and everything else. If it's actually classified coming through something other than SIPRNET or equivalent, you have a WAY bigger issue than a printer. Were I in your shoes, I'd have your ISSO and your COMSEC Custodian pay the requestor a visit.... -Grue Gromit- Rollerblades would be funnier. -Voz I'm guessing the classified documents have the header eBay.com. -MarloVino
