Tickets I Never Thought I'd Have To Enter.... Facebook is Inaccessible !!!!

[hisamishness.livejournal.com]

Yeah... somebody actaully called in because they couldn't get into facebook... And worse? they could articulate a half-ok argument for their use being work related!

ARGH!!!!!

Funnily enough, someone at work recently had to ask IT for access to facebook. There was a genuine work-related reason for it as well.

[jecook]

Same here, oddly enough.

However, they have to prove their need for it to their boss, and *then* we open the filter for them. :D

[dave-iii.livejournal.com]

Tell 'em when they come up with a good reason they have to re-submit the ticket with their boss' approval.

Are they in HR?

[kageneko.livejournal.com]

Heh. That would be a legitimate request at my company since we work with retailers and tie into various social media sites :)

[cardensaraid.livejournal.com]

I had someone call in for tech support because they couldn't play Farkle....

Ohhh, major icon love.
That was such a creepy episode!

;)

[dysan27.livejournal.com]

Icon love.

Also love the line in that episode:
"I'm the doctor, you're in the largest Library in the Universe. LOOK ME UP!"
... and they retreat.

Crowning Moment of Awesome... this show has so many.

;)

[goose-entity.livejournal.com]

there are so *many* High Octane Nightmare Fuel moments since 2005. I think the relaunch has probably produced as much HONF as the previous 26 seasons O.O

[jokergirl.livejournal.com]

Don't blink!

Crowning Moments of Heartbreaking as well. The Waters of Mars near broke mine.
He so needs a new companion to set his head right again...

;)

[goose-entity.livejournal.com]

the Crowning Moment of Heartbreaking for me was in "the Doctor Dances".

Dr9 says: "Just this once, Rose, *everybody lives*!"

Think about the implications of that for a moment. For all his long life, for all his adventures, all the companions... just this *once*, everybody lived.

*sniffles* :'(

[jokergirl.livejournal.com]

It's also Heartbreaking in Hindsight, since technically a lot of the characters are long dead people...
But at least they got to live. All their life.

*sniffles too*

[goose-entity.livejournal.com]

They lived via the Slow Path, while the Doctor, the lonely angel, runs ever faster.


Sss-something in my eye *coughs* *sniffle*

[jokergirl.livejournal.com]

*twists the knife in the wound*

"When you run with the Doctor, it feels like it'll never end. But however hard you try you can't run forever. Everybody knows that everybody dies and nobody knows it like the Doctor. But I do think that all the skies of all the worlds might just turn dark if he ever for one moment, accepts it. Everybody knows that everybody dies. But not every day. Not today. Some days are special. Some days are so, so blessed. Some days, nobody dies at all. Now and then, every once in a very long while, every day in a million days, when the wind stands fair and the Doctor comes to call, Everybody Lives."

[goose-entity.livejournal.com]

You.. you... YOU!!!

*sobs* *sniffles* BAWWWWWWWW!!!! *sobs*

[jokergirl.livejournal.com]

S'alright *sobs with you*

I may have to friend you for this.

[goose-entity.livejournal.com]

that would be *brilliant*.

But then, so am I ;)

[kellirose1313.livejournal.com]

I less than 3 you both so much right now.

[goose-entity.livejournal.com]

:-D

I think FB actually spat it for a short while a few hours back. It was giving an internal server error of all things.

[trixtah.livejournal.com]

Hah, life in Australia means that if you implement a net nanny for the organisation, you need to open up all the sites that offer footy tips for "morale".

[hisamishness.livejournal.com]

Footy tips? This is some physically 'challenging' kinky practice?

[trixtah.livejournal.com]

If it were only that interesting: http://www.footytips.com.au

[hisamishness.livejournal.com]

Ick.

All I can parse from that page is that it's some vaguely sports related and Burger King sponsored fantasy league?

ps - Love your icon -- mind if I gank it?

[trixtah.livejournal.com]

No, alas, it's not even the fantasy football they want to do, they want follow the real thing.

Regarding the icon, I'd rather you didn't gank it, thanks. I maded it myself, and it's a bit too personal (I know, it's the intarwebs, heh) to hand out. But the source pics are readily available, so go to it!

[hisamishness.livejournal.com]

Source pics... heh... I've taken pics that could be used for this. I just love the overall feel of your effort. Great work!

Like some of the above posters, we actually do need access to facebook for work-related purposes too. I work in a news environment, and more often lately, we've had people respond to requests for photos with 'oh, just get them off my facebook'.

[wxgeek.livejournal.com]

+1; what do you do?

[fluffydragon.livejournal.com]

I am a graphic artist (employeed even!) :). Hubby does the support stuff for the house, and my dad does IT for IBM/Lenovo, but I'm literate enough for our IT guys not to hate me. Dad's got TONS of 'Rabbit ate the power cord/CD tray as a coffee holder' stories.

[wxgeek.livejournal.com]

Oh, shiny! I'm a web developer for the local newspaper down this way. I honestly find that I like getting out, writing stories and shooting photos more... but such is life. ;)

[hisamishness.livejournal.com]

I'm not in, but am attached at the hip to a 'news organization'. Apparently some of our various divisions have a legitimate marketing presence on FB. Go Figure.

[wxgeek.livejournal.com]

Like me! I'm signed into separate three facebook and twitter accounts right now. :)

[tauren-wardrums.livejournal.com]

I'm suddenly VERY glad we have no legitimate reason to go to Facebook here.

[tecknow.livejournal.com]

The university where I work uses "org sync" which is a student organization management with it's lips firmly sealed around Facebook's API, so Facebook is officially where the school and its organizations make announcements.

I think this is a great idea,
but I'm pretty malevolent.

Had to do this for a YouTube video once. Amazingly, the request was actually legit. The resulting hole punched in the security system was microscopic - that one URL, nothing else, for that one user, no-one else, for seventy-two hours only.

And he was told not to access it where anyone else could see - the content was G-rated, but if the general userbase had gotten the idea that YouTube was accessible from computers in the workplace, we would have been up to our armpits in whiny requests, demands, and tantrums for the next six months.
