      It's a day for printers. . . 3 tickets this morning alone. .

      We got 30 something tickets yesterday morning before 10am for new user accounts that had to be ready by today.

      A couple of weeks ago we had someone walk into the IT department and say, this is our new hire... do you have a laptop for him? We all looked at each other blankly as no one ever told us that there was a new hire starting that day.

      It's taken a couple of years, but that kind of stuff is now rare. 🙂

      Put a two week SLA into place and let new hires sit around for a while. Fixes itself.

        Just convince your HR department to make it part of the "New Hire Checklist." That's what I did back in the day and it fixed it. There were a few times where they still wouldn't let us know in time, but for the most part, it fixed the issue.

          We've had the same problem and put a 2-day SLA on it. Put an end to it so far. Just have to make sure that we keep some computers in storage and ready to go

                  You'd be much better than the cable company guys at least.

                    Don't even do that. Make the SLA two days plus computer delivery time!

                      I try to not show my frustration to those guys. I come here for help a heck of a lot more than I come here to give it. I'm not going to sit on my throne like I'm king when I can finally do something right.

                      But yeah, typically

                        Sometimes our workloads can change somewhat dramatically from week to week, so we must be prepared for some quick hires, even if they come from a temp agency. If they do come from a temp agency, then they are closely monitored.

                            I'm currently re-installing FreePBX because I fumble fingered the gateway address and didn't realize it till I blew away the VM to start over.... are you all sure it's not Monday morning?

                              LOL you might be experiencing what is called Monweek. These happen from time to time where against all odds your week is simply full of Mondays. The nice thing about these weeks is that when you hit the weekend it feels that much better.

                                Why didn't your cool glasses tell you that you were about to do something wrong?

                                        I feel really quite lucky that my first FreePBX use will just be for my personal line.

                                          I am so close to just biting the bullet and doing it. I just don't feel like teching too much lately.

                                            I've been blessed with a few users (department heads) who have given me some really good, specific information about how they want stuff handled.
