Our network is degraded we have 2 faulty switches awaiting replacement. Every 30 to 45 min the network loses full connectivity. If you are logged in you lose email and network access.
If you are not logged in you lose the ability to log in. As bad as it sounds the techs no longer care. We have been telling them for years to replace this 10 year old garbage and they wouldn't listen.
Short term solution we reboot the switches but that only lasts 30 to 45 min. So now we are waiting on replacement parts to fix the issue once and for all. Why are they mad at us?
They have no sense of time. In their day you bought a telephone and it lasted so long you could will it to your children. Today's technology scares them because they don't know how long it will last.
But we tell them that, we tell them everything and we explain it beforehand to make sure they understand.
True, but we don't tell them in a language they can understand.
