Comment on Cloudflare Employee records her final meeting where HR tries to fire her
toasteecup@lemmy.world 9 months agoIt guy here, I care more about the computers and tech than HR cares about people. Fuck HR
I know right? Old piece of hardware getting retired? It gets new life if I have something for it to do. I’m looking at my Brother HL-5170DN from 2006 that got tossed because the 2nd tray kept jamming. Guess who doesn’t need a 2nd tray and loves this printer?
My first home server was a decommissioned small business server. Was a file server for a long time until the hard drives started to go.
Yuuuuuuuuuup. I always try to repurpose first instead of tossing. Even tossing for tech is a donation first if I can.
Only thing I don’t love is a case I’ve had forever is an old enough ATX design that I can’t easily fit all the new things in it. I’d love to repurpose it for a desktop for her but I don’t think I’m going to love building things in it if I do.
Yall IT guys are daisys thinking HR wouldn’t stop at owning slaves
Oh you the new computer guy? Hey can you help me with the printer?
Have you turned it off and on again?
At least 3 times?
I see and what’s your error message precisely
I did but there is a power outage
Reestablish power to your office then try again

I know I feel empathy towards computers that are broken that I can’t help anymore

When they won’t even boot into a Linux USB drive, make funeral preparations. Pack the dead body in a box and ship it to the hazmat recycling facility in the sky.
