    I don’t want a promotion. I want to do what I was hired to do for what I agreed to get paid, with cost of living adjustments, 40 hours a week. That’s it. I don’t want my employer to be my friend, family, dependent, emergency contact.

    Meanwhile, their computers suck ass (I’m an involuntary enterprise user), so maybe they should get their priorities straight?

      We switched to all Dell laptops at the start of the pandemic and we’re seeing like a 40% hardware failure rate now 3 years later, conveniently right after the warranty term ran out.

      I used to love Dell’s enterprise laptops and desktops. We rarely had hardware problems with them. Then the generation that switched to USB-C (over the old dock port) came around and we’ve had tons of hardware failures - both laptops and docks.

        That tracks. My last two enterprise laptops had USB-C powered docks. The first one had problems since the first time I plugged in that ridiculous double plug for the dock. My current one is basically new and is already an unstable mess.
