With bosses like this it's no wonder this migration thing has been a cluster copulation.

Boss also want me to allow users that request the ability to send to all users without going through approval of the CEO. 9 times out of 10 the users requesting to be able to send to everyone in the company is to announce something they have some personal affiliation with that has nothing to do with the company. That's why there is an approval process, to make sure they know what is acceptable and what is not. Most don't want the access when they find out they can't spam everyone in the company with info on their church bake sale or whatever. And the reason it has to be approved by the CEO is to keep people like my bosses boss from giving access without making sure people know the rules of use and the consequences.

It sounds like they need to use the email guy that we use at work. He is pretty good an I have his cell number to get tech support and no middle management layers of tech support. I go right to the top. His name is Richard something.

Oh Boy, Office 365 just broke again. All the new licenses they assigned expired.

Bloody dickhead taxi company (we only have one). The missus and I got a taxi home last night at about 11:30pm. The stupid prick dispatcher rings me repeatedly at 2am to tell me my taxi is on its way. WTF, I'm making sleeping noises ya dickhead! Second time they've pulled this caper on us since February.

Bye taxi company, hello private hire.

If you only have one dickhead taxi company why not use one of the other ones?


They are probably using office 365 to keep track of fares.

Well, my bosses gave me access to the att portal not just the Office365 portal. I was somehow able to fix all the licensing issues.

The whole thing was not a billing issue. According to the change log one of my bosses logged in Wednesday night and messed with the settings to try to keep anyone from adding more licenses. He set the limit to zero effectively removing all of our licenses and keeping us from adding any back. The logs don't say who and of course neither of them will own up to it.

So my phone rings and it is my friend who lives over in the valley, and if he is calling me at 7am it is either trouble or he wants to go get in trouble, not this time. His 7 year old daughter has his phone and is simply calling random people in his phone book.
That was strange

Morning.

Sounds like something my daughter would have done. They called 911 instead!!

I could hear a voice, picked up the phone and it was the dispatcher!! That was fun explaining what occurred. He was cool but I'm glad he didn't just send out the police.


My FIL bought the 85 Trans Am to part out. The TPI engine is stock and still has all of the parts it came from the factory with. We haven't started it yet but figure someone may need a good street rod motor. If it runs it should garner a few deneros.

Rick--congrats on being selected for parade duty in the monster truck. Good deal!!

We of off to the PCA breakfast in downtown OKC. Normally the parking lot has tons of space. Today they are having a walk for Alzheimer's patients and using that same lot to set up. Hopefully they are leaving some places for the restaurant customers.

Good Morning

Being the Grand Poobah of the 365 Portal, slept in this morning.

Thinkin an Eggo waffle with maple syrup, a half a stick of butter, and a few strips of crispy bacon washed down with a cold glass of whole milk for breakfast. That ought to get me charged up for the day.
