OMG, check out this terrible website... and for a guy advertising that he is geriatric. WTF

Look at the bottom, there is an ad for SEO Services. What the heck? Is the geriatric doctor providing SEO Services? Or is he supplementing his medical practices by advertising SEO Services like as ad placement?
Super late to the party here, but awkward pic for sure....

What's wrong with this?
two of them have long sleeve jackets - third has short
the dude on the right is 'holding' the woman' - why?
the woman and the guy on the right are facing each other, the left guy is facing straight ahead.just so many little things - it's just weird.

Eh, I mean I thought the one guy holding the ladies arm was weird, but I think you're over thinking this.

Had a fun one yesterday. Got called into a telephone client's shop because their network was down and they don't have a lot of faith in the VAR that set it all up and supposedly supports them. We got in and fixed a few things and showed them that their wireless had failed. But we have no passwords or anything to their expensive Cisco gear so we were pretty powerless to do anything but reboot the wireless. Turns out that they didn't even know how to power cycle it, so at least we were able to train them on doing that and made restarting it a much less painful process.
They got their support on the phone and they were never able to get a networking guy, ever. Their put a billable time receptionist on the phone who just kept saying "give me just a second here" as they tried to figure out what was wrong (um, the device isn't broadcasting an SSID, this is pretty basic people) and spent hours never even logging into the device (could not figure out how.)
While they were on the phone getting reamed by the owner I handed them a note that better wifi gear was in stock at Micro Center for $133. They just handed me the company CC and sent me off. Long story short... went to MC, bought Unifi gear, set it up, installed it, and replaced their garbage Cisco equipment for a fraction of the money, and a fraction of the time, as it took to get the Cisco reseller to even get a tech on the phone (which never happened at all, for a whole day of waiting on them) and now their environment just works, has way better coverage, we can help them when things go wrong, is cheap and quick to replace if necessary, etc. Huge win for them, and for us, their VAR looks like complete buffoons.

Did you give them the passwords? I vaguely recall reading something about you (NTG) not having the passwords, and the clients having them? Is that right?
I definitely like to do the same, that way the client is always in control.

You are thinking of a discussion of users. NTG doesn't go around asking user's for their passwords. That's unrelated to IT management.

We generally try to not give clients uncontrolled access. I almost always recommend break glass only, so that if the client decides to log in that we know the glass was broken. Casual admin access is a very dangerous thing for everyone concerned.

Today's things not to do:
- Don't get all your information wrong and call your IT department's account manager in a huff.
- Don't get angry about something for no reason and try to take it out on IT who is trying to help you.
- Don't refuse to follow the decisions of the owner of the company.
- Don't claim your staff is bored and needs their time filled by just moving a mouse around.
- Don't make ridiculous demands that are so extreme they require service level adjustments and approval of the owner.
- Don't lie five times to your account manager while on a recorded line.

Yes, still employed. Mostly because we are still on the call.
