Thinking of dumping my car... Thoughts?

Jesus.

Reason given for firing:
60GB of hardcore porn found on work drive

REAL reason for firing:
Anyone who would do that is too stupid to work there.

Are IT guys were compelled/requested to report any porn they find? Do they?

Kinda always wondered about that ever since I came across a folder on a networked drive at work (9 employees at the time) just full of porn videos.

I remember being almost as flabbergasted by the sheer amount of space it took up as I was by the fact that it was there for everybody who clicked on the F: drive to see.

I feel like that was discussed years ago. Maybe in response to hep's story. My vague recollection is that, yes, something like that should be reported. Presumably to management and HR. Of course, in a startup there may be no HR, per se. So that could make things a lot ... stickier........

I was close friends with the consultant who worked near me back in those days. He heard me laughing out loud at one point and wondered over. I showed him the file names as they were transferring and he broke out laughing to, but we didn't tell any other consultants or IT folks. I did report it to one of the partners though as I also wanted to explain to him why I refused to copy a drive from his previous job to his new company's laptop. He heartily agreed with me that the latter was a huge no no, but that he'd give the guy slack on the former as he didn't want to get involved with that just yet. I think even then he knew this guy was a prima donna who wasn't going to work out.

After the incident where he pissed off one of the nicest guys in the office with the aforementioned criticisms 10 minutes after actually meeting him, my boss came to me and asked me to document all the things he did wrong with the IT stuff in case he fought back against being fired for being an ass (unofficial designation, of course). Thankfully he didn't and left without much fuss.

edit: whoops, if i've told this story before, sorry!

No worries. Everything old is new again! At least with my failing memory!

Although in the context of this discussion, I highly doubt Drazzil is handing his manager at 7-11 an external hard drive full of porn and asking that it be copied to his register.

...or is he?

I mean it would help to have someone with experience being robbed.

I never listed that experience on my resume though.

The cyst will heal. The money lost is gone forever. Also Im pretty sure how I got it. Cat landed off balance on my bed and caught my taint with the tip of a rear claw. Completely accidentally. This happened a while ago when it was warmer before I got my room AC. I figured it would reabsorb before it burst. I was wrong. I would have gone to the hospital but they seem to have a hell of a lot of COVID lately and I didn't want to take that risk.

Riiiiiighhhhtt.. Cat randomly caught your taint on a jump... happens ALL the time!!

First, definitely do that.

Second, if you can confirm Lawbeef's ICD-10 code guess that would be great.

Also, if you truly end up with lymphoreticulosis, I'd like to discuss featuring your taint in my class. Perhaps doing a write up for the MMWR as well. Thanks.

Funny you should say that cause... After work and the interview I had for another job, I was in the restroom at home and decided to do a little gentle prodding, the cyst blew it's top again. Leaving bloody ejaculate all over my hands. This time it totally drained. The job interview went well too. Only issue is that the Sales support only pays 16 an the sales job only pays 15. That's like.50 to 1.50 below what I'm making now, hourly. The interviewer really liked me and really wants me tho.

I got some considerin to do.

If he really wants you, he'll pay what you're asking. And you should ask more than you are making, since you're the one going through the trouble of adjusting to a new job.

My wife (an LPN) makes more money than RNs do at her place of employment because they really wanted her, she named her price and stuck to her guns.

Dude, get that thing checked out. I had a cyst like lump develop (not near my taint, for the record) that was very painful and slowly draining. Then it popped as you described and I went to the doctor. He told me that it had gotten infected and that if I had waited any longer, I would have had sepsis and had to be hospitalized. So don't mess around with this stuff, it can be deadly.

My 7-11 got closed for COVID. I got a three day weekend. New manager really appreciates me. About half of my co workers are vaccinated and the unvaxxed ones got a paid ten days off. Oh well. Doing inventory and cleanup with mgr. Overtime possibility unlimited. coworker made 1k a week the last four weeks. I always anticipate what the team needs and am usually a few moments ahead. So cool.
