Firefox got me in trouble today - with our firm IT:
IT: Do you use firefox?
Me: Yes
IT: Why?
Me: Why not?
IT: It’s not supported in firm web apps
Me: I know, and i don’t use it for firm web apps
IT: You shouldn’t have it
Me: Why not?
IT: Errr…
Me: ?
IT: Well, don’t encourage others to use it
Me: I don’t
IT: Well, you did to Gary
Me: i did??
IT: That’s what he said
Me: mm k? i’ll stop doing that
IT: Ok. [walks away]
People look at me funny when I tell them I use a mac (oh you use a Mac, are you like, not smart enough to use Windows? cuz you know, it’s so simple). Now with Firefox?
I can feel how the early Christians must have felt when they were being proscuted for what they believe.
Lynx all the way!
At least you have a separate IT department and software department.
I don’t find that as a good thing. We have corporate IT, regional IT, local IT. Web development department, Automation Technology, and whatever other software management groups we have. Politics kills innovation.
Mordac Lives!
Did you know if you search for Mordac on wikipedia, it refers you to Dilbert?
Didn’t realize Mordac is from Dilbert…
