It also depends on the problem. I've worked in Student Information systems that were buggy as all get out. Sure, IT can work aroudn the issues with a few SQL Queries and patch the problem until it happens again... But instead, we should call the vendor and see what their recommendations are first. If they say "We'll fix it later"... Then "A patching we will go... "
People soft? I always say replace the crappy software.
Staples still uses that for their associate connection site. They've used it for many years.
It's bad. Made by oracle so that explains a lot of it. Not as bad as Munis though http://www.tylertech.com/solutions-products/munis-product-suite
Yup, I know. They used to use it for A LOT more but they've gone to all in-house developed systems for a lot now.

Still angry at the job after NTG that, as they are telling me that they wanted to put me on the tech services team (their name for the engineering team) and how I'd be much more suited for a Junior Sys Admin position or the like, they are firing me because they said I wasn't following procedure. I should also note that the procedures they were quoting weren't documented anywhere or were very poorly documented. Believe me, I'd looked. Most of the stuff you were basically expected to either know or just basically figure out. Oh well...

I am. It was just kind of funny. My rule is if a company chooses to use a company out of India for recruiting in the USA, they immediately get eliminated from consideration.

Trying to work but distracted by an excellent idea for my camping tunes box.
Hollow out my unused center speaker of a 5.1 surround system I bought ages ago. Install above, drill hole for usb cord and headphone jack to pass through the top. Install and hot snot down the batteries. What could go wrong?

@MattSpeller Sounds like today is find a dang helmet day...

Did you check what nominal dBu level that Class D amp wants? you might have to use a pre amp on your line in to get the singal to the proper level.

Giving it more thought and applying some Ohms law, I need to look at how to do it another way.

giggling at the quarter time footy score. It looks like this weekend is shaping up to be a good one!
Collingwood is getting pantsed already! Hopefully Geelong can continue with the ownage.

Educational section:
Sport referenced: AFL
Teams in this game: Collingwood and Geelong.- You either despise Collingwood or love them to death. Most of the country despises them, they have been known to be bad sports... especially their fans.
- It's always good when when they get beaten, badly.
