**** the computer network/server.
 

HOW ARE YOU ON THE NET WITHOUT THE NETWORK. ANSWER ME THAT AND I WILL SPARE YOUR LIFE.

I'm not sure how. We may have one server for Internet use, and another server for our computer drives, where the files I work with, are stored.


EDIT: damn x-posting

THE NETWORK IS DOWN OH NOEZ[/end furiously typed message sent successfully over the pneumatic tubes powering the internet as we know it]

That was my thought, but you put it so much better than I would have.

Help Desk guys are the worst.

If you think it's painful for you, imagine it when I have to call help desk.

If I could fix it myself I could, but they don't give me permissions. So I tell them exactly how to fix it, but instead they go through their checklist of stupid **** to ask me before concluding to do what I said at the beginning. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/mad.gif

My laptop at work is off their grid. My manager and I are rebels. They're running WinXP + Office 2003 with crippled local permissions...we're running Windows 7 + Office 2010 and we actually VPN into the network. When their network goes down -- and it does all the time -- we're unaffected. We've got our own internet connection, and we also have a backup WiMAX modem.

They also are affected by a corporate firewall. Not us. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/mad.gif

The one good thing to working it IT. I have most of the access codes so it's easier to fix things myself.

I thought this thread would be about Poly's POS server. :surprised:
