@JaredBusch yeah... you have clients... I have just my house.
Also thanks for the recommendation, love this unit.

Working on an ansible Invoice ninja installation, first one playbook for all and then separated into individual roles for reusability.
-
testing a restore from Veeam.
-
booted and logged in successfully.
I love Veeam instant recovery. It boots the VM from the backup media.
Only puts the metadata on the destination server until you click publish.

I'm up and it is a gorgeous morning. Loving it. Just caught up on ML and SW posts. Totally on top of both, that feels good. Hopefully no disasters today.
-
Just had my first review, and now back on the desk, currently rebooting a few customers servers.

Yet another "do I have to do my job" thread: https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1964054-does-it-have-to-help-hr-build-a-case-against-an-employee
This is such a standard pattern. I just can't understand how basic employment is so foreign to so many people.

@scottalanmiller People allow their empathy get involved. Things need to be cut and dry here.
-
Empathy for what, though? It's just laziness from what I can tell.

Empathy for the person whom they are collecting the data about, because that person will likely be fired.

It's a random empathy. They need empathy for the company, too.

They do need empathy for the company, but it's doubtful that there is any like there is on an employee to employee basis.

Helping someone out with FreeNAS that lives on freaking Reunion Island. How cool is that? The Reunion part, not the FreeNAS part.

Where do you get lazieness from? You honestly think this person is thinking meh, I really don't want to do this, but instead of saying nah, I'm lazy and don't want to do they are making up this moral dilemma.

This is a huge failing in most places. I'm not sure where the responsibility really lies here - the company to make the employees love the company, or employees from within wanting to see their employer succeed and prosper.
I wonder if low pay has a role to play in this? If people are financially challenged, I'm guessing they have less care about their company, versus companies that have a larger population that makes a decent wage. -

There is no moral dilemma at all. They have a job to do and a responsibility. There is no moral issue with providing concrete data, no opinion to be added, no grey area. There is just "doing the right thing and doing their job" or "doing the wrong thing and not doing their job." Assuming that they are not evil and trying to actively cover something up, what motivation other than laziness do you see?
Yes, I absolutely think that they are lazy and don't want to be bothered. I've seen this stated directly on SW, people who are actually angry that they were asked to do work and try to push it off to someone else. Actual anger! The laziness in similar cases is directly stated sometimes.

It doesn't require empathy to "follow instructions", though. Empathy for the company would be above and beyond. Not that that is bad, that's great. But in this situation, empathy for someone trying to hide what they are doing that turns into action is actively breaking solid rules.

You are saying that low pay may make people act unethically? Seems a stretch, but statistics do often back that up.
