Wondering about the user base of Spiceworks, cause as of this morning, I'd rather deal with users.... rather than sudo-it personal.
I see that it has been a rough morning.

I just can't figure out what this guy is trying to do. He has a physical security need, but doesn't want anything physical?

It's been "raining" all over spiceworks this morning.....

@scottalanmiller Also raining here. NJ is gloomy in complete sunshine so when it rains everyone's facial expression changes. Life is starting to remind me of this music video I saw awhile ago--Kenna's "Hell bent"
Here: https://www.vevo.com/watch/kenna/hell-bent/USSM20404046
Also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/More_(1998_film) <-- this is the short film in the video

Let me some up this thread: "Man doesn't know what computers are and wonders if they will keep running once the power has been removed from them. Yet has 100.000 Euro budget to throw at VMware FT so that he doesn't have to think about how computers work."
Who gives someone 100.000 of discretionary money for fault tolerance for them to use when they don't know what happens when power is removed from a computer?

People who also don't understand the magical black boxes of the world.

Dealing with a customer who likes to say that we are not available. But every time they email and say "can we do a call" we are like "yup, sitting by the phone, just call and we'll pick up" and then they wait a week and say the same thing again, acting like we "can't make connections." Um... not bothering to call is not the same as not making a connection. And right this second "are you available on Skype right now"? Yes we are, here is our ID, why didn't you provide yours? Oh... and now radio silence when you asked for a call? Argh. Weeks of this.

Leave it in the car park tied to an alligator?

He's being stubborn, out of his depth and stuck on some mind-trip where he needs less hardware, but physical hardware to access a single VM from within his server room.

Why don't you call them?

I had a woman ask me why a specific issue was occurring and then complain to her director that I explained what the issue was for too long. It was barely a minute.

Internet went out for a bit. Trying to get moving again. I was doing good to get stuff done.... now my motivation is gone.

This guy probably has a valid point, but with all the other insanity this morning, I find it unlikely. To me he comes across as a secretary that is bitter for having to do his job. He actually thinks that an old engineer not knowing PowerPoint is "fraud" because anyone with experience should know it? Maybe anyone with experience as a secretary, not in IT.
