Holy hell IT people are nerds

I got this email this morning:

Hi Everyone,

This is your captain speaking "Robert Jean-Luc Wipfler". We have a very serious matter that needs to be dealt with!. Our ships computer is out of disk space (you have seen the warnings on your screens) and is going to crash into Romulan territory unless we all help out as soon as possible. Here is the battle plan:

1) Delete Delete Delete all files you no longer need from your H:\, J:\ and K:\ drives

2) Move all non critical files that you do not use frequently and that do not need to be backed up into your My Documents folder which should be located at C:\Documents and Settings\your user id\My Documents in Windows 2000. In NT you need to create the folder if it does not exist.

3) Empty all of your Outlook Deleted Items, Sent Items and Inbox Items in your Personal Folders section that are no longer needed, and do this on a regular basis.

4) Stop downloading Boy George MP3's and saving them on the network.

Engage,
the IT dude

Someone should ask why Captain Picard wasn't more closely monitoring storage space. It isn't as if additional capacity is expensive or difficult to add.

Worst. Admin. Ever.

Attention user,

You have 5 minutes to clean all your useless shit off your network share. Dancing babies and waving flags anoy the shit out of me.

Your mail file is also to grown to be absurdly large. Please delete the pictures of your grandkids' 3rd birthday and any other useless shit.

Failure to comply will result in your ID being shitlisted. This is a mandatory +72 hour waiting period on any problems submitted to IT in the future. This time penalty will increase exponentially as I see fit.

Mary,

I have taken the liberty of looking at your issue. I have taken steps to remedy your situation, please review the below:

If you check under your chair, you will find a Colt .45 and a single round, already chambered for your connivence. Please note that there is no admin access required to use this.

Re: Holy hell IT people are nerds

That IT admin is a moron. If you are requesting that users delete stuff, then you aren't doing a good job.

He ought to implement quotas for them, so they CAN"T save more than a given amount - same with their exchange inboxes. And disk space is so cheap - if he has done the above and still needs space, he needs to add drives.

What a chump.

Not being part of the janitorial staff of the IT world (oh, I'm sorry, I meant to say part of "Starfleet"), that didn't occur to me. Not that I'm suggesting our very own Bruton is of a janitorial bent. The real question is, does your sysadmin own any Kirk/Spock porn?

That's exactly how we treat them around here. Janitors of the high-tech world. [img]/images/graemlins/supergrin.gif[/img] Quotas? You don't like my disk hoggishness? You're FUCKING FIRED! Kill yourself on the way out. Next!! Now get me more disk space ... and peel me a grape and drop it into my mouth.

Re: Holy hell IT people are nerds

I dont know, and I'll be damned sure I dont google it here at work. This has me thinking...Is there Big Bird/Snuffaluffagus porn? (Not that I would look at it, I swear)

What about Sanford & Son porn?
