      busy morning, but things have slowed down.

      Same here for a while, was scrambling to get data off this laptop so the dev could work from home (sick). But now that he's got his data to go (most of the 5gb was personal pictures, which I should have scolded him about), the hurry is over.

      Personal Photos huh... Yep... he could have waited... tough lesson to learn...but sometimes you have to teach it.

        I didn't know until it was 80% done copying... He got a stern "when you drop a laptop, they often break" speech, but since he's ailing, I'll wait about the "personal files on company equipment" speech (which concludes with "I will take no responsibility for the safety of your personal stuff").

          Roughly 10 years ago:
          User: "Could you please copy my files to my new notebook?"
          Me: "Sure. Anything you don't want me to see?"
          User: "Nope, just a few family pics"

          I've noticed a very large file in the copy dialogue... 4GB ISO file, something about nurses. And it wasn't exactly what I would call a medical training video.

              Maybe setting a screenshot of the "nurses" as his desktop background would curtail such behavior...

                    Yeah, I would normally warn the user that I will tell his superior if something like that ever happens again. But in this case... well... "Hey, Boss, look what I've found on your notebook?". Harakiri 😉

                          ML has been somewhat slow today for posting. I don't get on SW much anymore, not at all today. So couldn't say anything about that.

                              I had just figured that out after I posted but walked away. President's day I guess.

                                    @scottalanmiller Yeah. Probably something to do with saving the vacation day or another time where we can get a 4 day weekend or something.

                                      Having a less than impressive day with British Airways. They are certainly not on par with AeroMexico or Turkish, that's for sure.

                                            Wife stranded already?

                                            She's having quite a few problems getting to her planes, yeah. I think she's doing okay right now.
