And I am seriously ticked off at the “IT Guy” that Sideshow Bob has. He has totally left my new boss in the lurch.
We have to remote to the accounting server. He’s on the Herndon network, and has to remote to our network, and then re-remote to the accounting server, which you can’t do.
So, the IT idiot sends him a file to install, which he doesn’t have the admin rights to install and shouldn’t be anyway, since he’s not a computer guy. So, the IT guy is on the speakerphone and finally says, “Well maybe I should come out there and take care of it.” I happened to be in the room and damn near jumped up and down trying to let the new guy know that YES, this would be a better idea.
In the meantime, the only way he can get to the accounting system is to go through my workstation, because mine is ‘hardwired’ or whatever to the Tyson’s server and then he can remote from there to the accounting server. All with his logon, but we can’t get him set up to be able to “see” the Tysons server on his own workstation when he boots up, because they made him an employee of another division. He’s not happy either. Took 2 weeks just to get him a logon at all.
So, we spent half the morning going through JE’s, which was excruciating, and I spent the rest of the day teaching him how to use Costpoint. (I am actually a decent trainer.)
Dentist was fine, apparently had a small freak out or something with the nitrous - Doc said they uploaded the video to the internet already, LOL.
Two more days. Easy.
