What Are You Doing Right Now

I'm taking zero vendor baloney today. I've had three vendors mess with me so far today and none have had a good day as a result of it.

Pretty sure that I just busted an iX sales drone on SW. Much like the FreeNAS documentation, he lacks plausible credibility. He spouts words but gets ALL the details wrong in his attempt to make a sale. He claims ZFS is better than RAID (even though ZFS is RAID), gets upset that Oracle made ZFS (Sun made it for Solaris 10), claims 9 million customers of iX systems, claims that the number of customers makes a product viable, etc. Then claims to be both an IT pro with 14 years of experience, but then claims to be a humble home users (red flag, not allowed to post on SW.)
look at you go, weeding out the fakes
I try. He failed pretty hard. He didn't take the time to even look up the basics.
See I know better than to pretend to be someone Im not... especially not around IT Pros such as everyone on this site.. I make it clear I am new

Look, here he is a year ago giving the same sales pitch for FreeNAS and even a year ago he was stuck defending that he's not a salesman for iX (he doth protest too much.)
-
I wrote up a report on him for the mods. They can sort him out. Probably just needs to be watched.

LOL. Rule for for posting on social media: know who the big players are that aren't going to take your shit.

One vendor was not online, just made a big accounting "mistake". One didn't like their bad press online so went to my boss hoping to pressure her into getting me to not expose them. Um, that failed. And then this appears to be vendor three trying to sneak by some high pressure sales.

He's a bit annoyed that I called him out on the gibberish, I think.

He has a gibberish name. Who is surprised?

Waiting for a lift to work. Just spent 10mins on the train catching up on just this thread. More catching up on the rest of MangoLassi when I get into work, before I start thinking how to sort out Radius at a site with two domains

Whoot Friday - so glad the week is over and I can haz some down ti-,.... dang it... Still have to mow and work on the house. Ugh. I is the tired of adulting. Wished someone else would do it for a week so I can just haz some fun.
Other than that,.. scratching my head on what/who a few things are. Guess they'll sort themselves out in the end. I just work here -
