You ignored us and said it was not a problem.

Now its a over million dollar problem. Jackass....

And you are going to blame it on us.

In video games, you have the collectible files to answer "What the hell happened here?!" but in real life.

Hey boss. So, I found out what the problem was. It turns out no one's been cleaning the filter, Dan the mechanic showed me the inside, and it was super hardened dust, he wonders "how did it even manage to run like that for so long" For over a year it's been collecting dust. We took the old one to replace it, but we're going to need a new filter. You should get one ASAP before anything goes wrong. Also, I showed the guys how to clean the filter from now on.

Hey boss. So, the pressure is a bit higher than normal, we should be good. I just hope we can replace the filter before we do the harder stuff.

Hey boss. So, I see that we started the harder stuff, and the pressure is way up. As soon as we get that filter we'll put it in and everything will be under control. Hope to see it soon.

Hey boss. So, I cleaned up door 2, when we get the new filter I'll be ready to install it.

Hey boss. So, the filter is making noises that it really shouldn't. Showed the other guys where the electrical switch is in case it goes off again when the pressure is too high. I hope the new filter comes in.

Hey boss. So, because the electrical switch goes off so much, I showed the guys how to push the big pieces with sticks. It's been helping a lot, but we should replace the filter, it's really overdue.

Hey boss. So, one of the guys (José) accidently lost a stick inside the machine. We got it out, but one of the blades is broken. When the mechanic comes, do you think he can help replace the filter too?

Hey boss. So, the filter popped a leak. It's on the side, and very small. I put a bucket on the side to collect what comes out. I showed the other guys that they need to replace the bucket when it gets full. I hope we get that filter replaced ASAP.

Hey boss. So, I spoke with the mechanic (Dan). He was trying to run away "I don't want to be anywhere near that bomb!" He replaced the blade, but he's not doing the filter today? Is he supposed to come another time to do that?

Hey boss. So, the filter just sputtered some black goo on one of the guys (Eduardo). He says "Sta bien." I told him to go home early, but I he didn't come in the next day, and I can't reach him at all. We should find another guy to replace him, and also that filter too.

Hey boss. So, we lost one of the batches. Ever since the EPA reached out to us about dumping what comes out of the filter, I've been putting it in some of the barrels on the side. I put a note on them, but the guy (Eduardo 2) can't read. He noticed right away, and so only lost one batch, but we should really just replace the filter.

god damn, I almost -felt- the pain in this post. I would sticky it if I could. It shows the frustration of people that know what they are doing vs people that schedule a meeting that should be a post-it or a email.

I had a long day today dealing with similar but different things but ffs. If we lived in the same area I would buy you a beer or a few after a day like that.

Again, I still think around 10% (at best) keep the world running. The rest are just derping the fuck out and have no idea how anything works and are annoyed when blinky lights don't do a blinky.

I always send emails when something like this is going to happen, then download and archive the email chain.

Lookeehere, we talked about that back in January...

CYA. I had a boss tell me to stop sending them those emails. I just started CC'ing other "managers" including them. They didn't like it but they could not do shit about it. I hated that place.

The only way that it could be more satisfying is if, when you told the boss about the problem, he said something dismissive and followed it up with "I may not always be right, but I'm the boss and what I say goes'.

I wonder if there is anyone like this at CrowdStrike?
