Pentagon has the worst IT helpdesk in the US government::DoD is dead last for tech support, equipment, communication, and function, say staff
You’d think the DoD’s astronomical budget would cover this.
Think about how many warlords we could bribe to protect American corporate interests in countries we aren’t supposed to be involved in instead of new functions IT. Those American friendly dictators aren’t going to arm and install themselves.
I’m guessing not too many people join the army or the air force to do IT support.
I can fix that
I did IT support for DOD as a contractor years ago. I wasn’t at the Pentagon, but from where I was, It’s primarily a funding problem, with a bit of corruption sitting in the purchasing side.
I can fix a lot of s*** on the cheap, but when they continually buy hardware below minimum spec for software there’s only so much you can do.
Wait so its just like my job now? Buying refurbished shit that was just okay five years ago and wondering why the infrastructure has weird quirks all the time? Maybe my sanity is a little too whittled for that.
Nice to see we are spending our $766 billion on the right things. 😒
I’d like to help you, but forst tell me who played 3rd base for the losers of the 1968 world series game 4?
And who won the heosman trophy in 1974?
Can’t have the enemies breeching our electronic perimeter.
They can neither confirm nor deny this …
Can they not afford overhead lighting in their data center? That would be step one.
they could pay me a bunch of money I’ll come and improve the situation
