These guys are freaking geniuses I tell you.
I had this EXACT email conversation with I guess who would technically be my boss.
Boss: "How do we get into system X to do updates? Can we get accounts created?"
Me: "System X was alpha, here's the shared ID and password, to create accounts on a system we haven't touched for 2 years we'd have to go back and figure out it worked, might take half a day."
Boss: "A single sign on is sub-optimal."
Me: "Of course it is, I was telling you how things are not how they should be."
Don't here from him for a bit...
Boss: "Can we get accounts setup on System X to do updates?"
Me: "Do you want me to take time out of my current project to do these?"
Boss: "Of course not."
Me: "..."
Not to mention that System X is in alpha, but is being put into production as if it was commercial grade.
It seems every day the priority changed to something that conflicts with the last one.
Anyway, I should stop ranting before I get myself in trouble.
