Comment They're all quoting the same ONE story... (Score 1) 124

Teamviewer says that there is no breach. That users that were compromised had not secured their remote systems with a password. I'm a teamviewer user, and have not had any of my systems compromised. It also seems apparent from the Reddit threads, that most of those people just left connections constantly open without even locking the remote system screen.

I work at a state university in TN. We are having this issue. Administrators are sucking up all the funds, wasting it on crap we don't need (like remodeling the President's office for a 3rd time in the last 10 years), or spending it wastefully ($7500 for software that we can't even fully utilize). Sure it may sound like sour grapes, but IT lives in the basement of the 60 yr old former Admin bldg, with asbestos in the walls, ceilings, and floor tiles. While the administration is paying to have the ground floor, and 2nd floor renovated (asbestos abatement with everyone still in the bldg), the basement, where we the bulk of our enterprise is housed, will not be touched. We don't even have properly functioning generators. Meanwhile, our football coach just received a 100k salary increase (to almost 700k/yr) for having a 7-5 season in Conf USA. Our President is taking the entire western half of the 2nd floor for a PERSONAL OFFICE SPACE, instead of moving our development staff out of the basement and into a more conventional location. Don't forget that our President has already had his current office re-furb'd, at least twice already with plans for a 3rd...needless to say, it's insanity. People are leaving left and right. I hate it here...sadly, this is where I chose to go for my BA...over 10 years ago. They're running it into the ground as fast as they can.

Comment Interviewed with RH twice... (Score 1) 113

First time, they flew me out, rented me a car, interviewed me for over 5 hours. Once I arrived at the HQ on campus at NC State, I wasn't allowed to leave. I wasn't given anything to eat. I was given a bottle of "red hat" water (I took 2 more as I left to get on my return flight). So needless to say, once the HR rep came around (she was the last interviewer) I was pretty tired and pretty snippy because I hadn't eaten anything all day (the person who was going to be my boss was to take me out to lunch, but he didn't. He just left after interviewing me). I didn't make a good impression, and frankly, I'm glad I don't work there. That was my first experience. The 2nd interview (for a different position) went mildly better, but they hired local, and I was out of state. I'm sure most people don't care one whit about this, but just figured I'd share my experience.
