To elaborate, we are a over 200 year old Japanese based company, with facilities in the U.S., Japan and Europe. The entire company uses this shared drive. When it became known that the reason none of us could access the drive, then to find out it was an American employee, then to find out it was an employee at our facility......yeah, things turned dark fast. |

IT should be called to the carpet for this! If some bozo pawn can wipe an entire shared drive, think about what a ransomware attack could do to your company's data because the permissions are set too promiscuous.....

To prevent me doing that again, he removed *ALL* permissions from everyone (system process, Users, the WORKS) for the Windows folder and all subfolders. I can't remember how far through it got before it locked up and never came back. Mike took me out for beers that night and confessed to what he had done - I fell off my chair laughing |

You are correct. Time to figure out who quit recently.

Oh we make sure this individual feels like a tool at all times. He's a bit of a pathological liar. I had to listen to a story a while back about how his left eye is a cyborg eye. Apparently the government provided him with prototype robotic eye after a seagull flew into the cabin glass of a plane he was in. The yarns this guy spins are nothing short of ridiculous. We all generally try our best to avoid him at all costs.

See, this is where my mind goes too. I love to hear supervisors complain about their employees. Instantly I want to reply with, "Well, you hired them. Stop hiring hiring idiots and you don't have idiots working for you."

Flip-vga was my go-to, especially after drinking beer at the local dive at lunch time. Text virus warning, clear screen, flip-vga. Ah, the good old days of autoexec.bat

Worse. Right now, the panels, card readers and intercoms are all installed....with no service. Our facility is wide open at this point....until IT decides that the cloud based software poses no threat to security; whilst our facility is currently unable to be locked. "We don't trust the software so we'll just leave all the doors unlocked 24 hours/day. It makes me simultaneously want to laugh, cry and bang my head against a wall. The real kicker, they asked me to get this done and now want to argue with me about it.

We used to do a tradeshow in Vegas and this same guy would show up each year. He had these elaborate stories about the government cross breeding humans and chimpanzees for strength trials - called them "Himpanzees". First time we thought he wondered in off the street and was off his meds, but we saw him at 2-3 more shows and his story remained consistent.
It was actually pretty elaborately put together and there were very few questions he did not have an answer for - and the answers remain consistent. When you saw this guy - your radar screamed "crazy" - he literally LOOKED crazy, but he was nice enough and we all knew him as the "Himpanzee dude". One year he kind of over stayed his welcome and we had to politely shoo him on - and we never saw him again. We laughed for years about where he is now. These people are everywhere.
