Dempster's bagels have visibly shrunk in the most obvious way, the hole is bigger and the bagel is skinnier. Not even just a little bit either..

Maybe it wasn't the first time or maybe they were transferred to a position that was "invisible" to OP, you never know.

Chances of raw dogging definitely increase after the introduction of the whiskey

"What do you see when it's coming back up?"

"Right back to the problem I'm having!"

"So you don't see [insert OEM logo here]?"

"Nope. And it's still frozen!"

"Where's the power button you're holding down?"

"On the monitor!"

Open the window and throw it out, please

I wash my face with my shampoo and then bar said the rest of my body

As someone living around the Timmins area, we've imported some hot climate individuals and still have room, send them up! The Northlander should be running by then /fingers crossed/

I use VBox to run my PiHole for now and have used it to play with a couple distros side by side. I also have a sup'd up tower built from spare parts from work, so resources aren't a constraint.

We're in a tight spot, our service desk is outsourced while escalations or issues requiring hands on are sent to us. Problem is our service desk is a dumpster fire. I have regular meetings with their leadership to address this but it literally makes no difference. I recently caught that one of their agents we told them to remove from our contract was back and just as shitty and work avoiding.

We're in the midst of replacing them with an internal regional team, but regional moves glacially slow. So we're in a "please use the service desk" and "fuck just email/teams me the details and I'll handle it when I have time" kinda situation. I'd love everything to go through tickets but I also know there's a 50/50 chance that service desk will fuck it up by camping on the ticket, sending it to our sister site who also uses them, or completely not understanding the situation and cocking up the ticket notes before escalating or closing the ticket...

Recently they took a user complaint of a singular device being offline and noted it as "entire site is without network", giving it a priority 1 status and escalating to our on-call line.

Sometimes they also take an actual P1 issue and dump into our queue without calling our hunt group or on-call number during business hours. We're project heavy so we don't hawk the ticket queue and it often leads us to missing the SLA of 30 minutes to assign the ticket to a tech.

Dumpster. Fire.

This made me think of the game, of which I have lost, and will follow the rule this time.

You rang?

I dunno, I don't like unnecessarily interacting with strangers. I'm gonna go sit in another room and tinker with something else for now.

Haven't heard of the proverbial cheeseburger.. gonna stare at this phrase for a bit.
