Not IT, but my fortune 500 employer has been on MS365 since my day one. Judging by the issues we fight with every day with those products, may God help you.

I think that’s the problem, most people think this is movie A.I. and it can do anything. In reality it’s just a tool like the computer is a tool. I use A.I. all the time to help me do my work, I don’t use it to do my work.

Same, I have the yearly subscription not because I use the features but because I want to support the project.

I’ll leave the subscription for now, but the second they start LastPassing things up I’m cancelling the subscription.

Also my start 9 has VaultWarden as an official app, I just haven’t seen the need to get it setup, now I do. I guess I know what I’m doing this weekend…

They spent the last several years trying to keep this from happening but just couldn’t make it happen in the end. I guess you could say, the spirit was willing…

Around 2005 my dad was working for a small air cargo company, the owner did him a favor and gave me a part time job in the evening while I was going to the local community college. Dad did double duty as accounting and HR and when I hired in I had to meet with him to go over the company’s employee handbook.

We went over bit by bit until I asked who would do that? to one of the items. He looked me straight in the eyes and said each of these rules come from actual incidents. He then calmly grabbed a tab and flipped to a section and said and we call this chapter Dennis.

Fun fact 20 years later and Dennis is the chief pilot of the company and one of only two people there I would blindly get in a plane with.

Yep, separate machines is the way.

My employer provides all of us with laptops for remote work, and management with cell phones. Some of these people (managers included) use the laptop as their sole computer for everything, and most of management takes advantage of the fact that if you port your phone number to the company phone you can switch between profiles and have the company pay the phone bill.

I look at these people and just marvel at their stupidity. My work laptop is on a segregated network and shut down when not in use. And if it goes like it looks like it’s going, when I get a manager cell phone, I’ll be keeping my personal phone separate. Keep’em separate always.
