      Every Monday the same people forget their passwords. Like clockwork.

        Use powershell to reset their password every Monday at 2AM to "Iforgotmypassword"

          I make them wait until the last possible moment I can contractually. Not catering to it

              Does that really help anyone? What's the logic there?

                  About to deal with someone trying to impersonate our CEO in order to phish information.

                    This is easy, it is not logic. It is emotion.

                            Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Your reaction to this is almost perfectly neutral.

                                More work is fine, providing the pay matches the increased responsibility.

                                      So when I started where I am currently it was purely a helpdesk / jr sys admin type of thing. There were 2 interns at the time.

                                      I've since built the entire infrastructure up, from designing the backup system to the hypervisors and everything else in between.

                                      Was there a bump, sure, was it enough of a bump / responsibility and chain of command to deal with the added workload and stress, nope.

                                        And really it was a SR Sys Admin, take over and drive the bus for us scenario.

                                        So many things just off the rails when I started.

                                          Basically what @DustinB3403 is saying, if I'm reading between the lines, is...if they want you to do the last guys job, then you get the last guys pay.

                                            Yeah not "your pay + his"

                                            Never works like that. Consolidate a 4 man team into a 2 man team. . . well look at that, just saved the business 50K!
