The guy that sits next to me has, "I forgot my passphrase" Doing a quick random poll of the office, we may be the only two that don't have the "F-word" somewhere in our pass phrase. (Yes. we did poll some of the female employees :shocked: )[/list:u]

I use the "f-word" as the basis for some of my passwords. Hey, it makes it easy to remember. :hehe:

When one of our old SysAds changed it so we had to have 10 characters, 1 special and changed every 30 DAYS, most of our passwords became iterations of F***Y**SamK**

he changed it back to 90 days and 8 characters after a two months.

I

HATE

WORK.


more specifically, my workplace. If i didn't have bills to pay, and a down payment on a car to save up for, I'd tell everyone off and leave w/ telling anyone how I did my work.

Same here :hehe:
ItLs not laziness though, I love working in marketing, I am just annoyed by artifical crisis created by senior management, decisions based on company politics and nobody wanting to take ownership of problems. Really tired today and just grateful that itLs Friday :dancing:

PS: The Euro million lottery jackpot is still not mine, but I remain optimistic :victory:

It's 7:17pm and I JUST got home from work. :grumble: Working over 12 hours on a Friday should be illegal.

I guess I can consider myself lucky: I like my job and dept free. I hate the long hours tho. Sometimes, I wished I was working at the Guess Accessories store downstairs. :hot: :beaten:

Yes! Not that I mind, cause hte money just sits in the bank, waiting for me to blow it on a trip (in this case, China). :D

I just spend the entire morning marking assignments. :grumble: I have a few hours left before the guests start arriving, so I think I'll try to whip up some lesson plans for next week. :sweat:
