Downunder Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Some time ago I gained employment with a company. Computer access was required, which the HR department was to organise. After some weeks I still did not have a login and password. After a series of phone calls and being passed on to 6 different people, I was told by a young lady that my password was emailed to my account and it was against company policy to state it verbaly over the phone. I then tried to explain to her I could not get to the password in the email because I needed that password to login. She struggled to comprehend. In the end she agreed to send a copy to my supervisor....... 1 1
bexrbetter Posted June 21, 2015 Author Posted June 21, 2015 I then tried to explain to her I could not get to the password in the email because I needed that password to login. My VPN service required me to first login in to the VPN service website to initiate it, I needed the VPN service to open their website .... But anyway, not realising that I needed an 8 letter password, I tried to register with "mypenis" ... apparently it's too short. 1 1
Litespeed Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 The last company I worked for decided it was crucial that we changed passwords every 28 days. Just to log on to our e-mail and files. What a pain in the arse. Did we do military secrets? Banking with access to money to swindle? Politicians with lies to suppress? NO I worked in a disability group home. I kept refusing and eventually the genius in IT gave in:throw pc:. 1

Bex, I can't believe that someone else remembers Mario Milano! As a kid, I used to watch that show with my Dad and my mother would give us both grief! Spiros Arion, Haystacks Calhoun, the mighty midgets... Ah, the memories... 1

You are more correct about that than you probably realise. In security world, that might as well be literally an 8 character password. Sorry back to your regular channel.
