  1. -= Topic moved to New Builds and Planning=- Not going find much help in the troubleshooting section for pc upgrades.
  2. Regardless of being the best in the business, if you fail due your own incompetence then you fail. It sucks for us, but life moves forward.
  3. -= Locked =- Unfortunately, there is nothing we as a community can do to assist you with this. Your best course of action is to have your friend give you the passwords.
  4. -= Moved to Off Topic =- in time for what? not to be snotty but I am still waiting for the ice age I was told would start in the late 90's. .... still waiting.
  5. Already taken care of. As mentioned, just report the offense and no need to make topics on it.
  6. -= Topic Moved to CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory =-
  7. I used to run a security company; I am aware of the difficulties. Having over 200 officers in the field spread out across the state that needed to clock in/out we had to be inventive until we were able to implement an onsite clock method using smart phones that were Geo locked both for their convenience and provide double duty for onsite reporting, tag reading, etc. and bio metrics used, just a pin number to log in. I have seen the issue with people covering for each other in other companies, especially managers, its a thing but this can be overcome as well with good training, incentives and other methods. I understand the world is changing [culturally] and steps need to be made to adjust. I get it. But you left out my bigger point when you quoted me. Granted I was being snotty when I posted. We pushed hard to give our employees the training they required and needed. We maintained an open and transparent workplace. The trust we openly gave them worked in our favor and in return they did the same. Ya ya, there were still those that were bad apples but that is always going to be a thing regardless of your efforts. Yes, I understand the larger the company the bigger the issues, and things have to be scaled, adjusted and all that, but to me this is still an unnecessary way of doing it. Do I have a better idea? Honestly, no. I am a tried-and-true kind of person. Good leadership equates to good following and eliminates the need to make certain choices that inherently bring up or create the question of mistrust. That is the way I operate and has always worked. Even with all that said, this is McDonalds, not 3M or NY Stock exchange. Even though I disagree with it, I don't work there and likely won't ever; I have said this many times (not here) that they can run their company as they see fit. If you apply and work there, you agree to their terms of employment even with future changes on the employer part. If the terms change you disagree with, there are other opportunities of employment, that is one of the beauties of capitalism. My opinion has no bearing or the understanding of reasoning behind their decision to implement this. A good example, I have 2 children old enough to work, the location they chose to work at has an application software and a timekeeping method that is asinine and so over complicated the person that designed the software really did a good job of over hyping and fooling the job place. I can't go into detail so not to reveal ppi accidentally but omw its horrendous. But again, it is their company, as much despise it, nothing I could say will help them improve it. My post was just my initial reaction to the article. I agree with this, it's illogical. And quite the stretch that the stretch armstrong toy couldn't reach it.
  8. Guess we shall how long this will last or how well it ages? (that is until apple can make another claim innovation of course )
  9. Thank you for the offer but there are no plans to implement an automated process for issuing badges.
  10. (a little late) I find this rather amusing, me when I was at peak fitness I weighed 240lbs could I could not use one of these chairs. fAter I got out of the service I have averaged 260-280lbs so I guess I will never be able a suitable customer for a Secret labs chair.
  11. Greetings! I was just curious, What's the point of cadence during military training? I could try googling it, but asking you seemed like a good idea at the time.

      It was intense. 1300 hrs of practice/season, EXTREMELY strict rules and procedures, and took over your life from July to November, but it did produce results. 

      Literally stood in block at attention waiting to be released for food for 25 minutes because 2 freshman couldn't stop being knuckleheads during drill.

      Cadence it life.

      Snapping from our cover of Street Beat to show cadence was wild. One second you've got Sousa's jammin, trombone suicides, and quads going full Keith Moon, and then the next second everyone is rigid and instruments are at parade carry.
