password overload.

should i do a search before i rant about this too? nope, i dont care.

how many of you are passworded to death? here is what i got.

2 just to get into my computer
email- lotus notes, it sux
parts ordering, this gets deleted if not used in like 60 or 90 days. i gave up getting new ones and use someone elses now.
another one for parts returns. i use someone elses
logging, i have to enter in 2 different places. it also has to be the same as another program, so those have to be changed together.
time sheet
credit carde bill
one to check my pay
one for travel
ive got 3 here i think are all for training
so thats i think 15 passwords along with user IDs, oh, and they are all written down beside my desk because i cant remember them all, surprise surprise. so how secure is it that EVERYONE here has to wriite down 15-20 passwords? and yes they are all work related.
not to mention passwords i have to log into equipment. lets see
the radar has 1, really 2 if i reinstall the software because one is default.
the radar test equipment password, 1 maybe 2
the artsystem has 3 different users and passwords
the voice recorder
the voice switch
thats about 7 more.
this is my favorite thing, some of the programs pop up and say, your password will expire in ## days. why not just make you change your password. and another thing, there are some that do pop up and make you change your password, but make you reneter it when i just entered it to get the change password screen. some programs make us change as often as 30 days.
ok, i feel better, the meds are kicking in now.
