What a nightmare

There's nothing like a 3rd party app that captures usernames/passwords and populates them into login screens to make my life hell. Users complained about having to login to too many things so we've implemented a "single sign on" hell.

People are calling, freaking out (rightly so), because they've lost hours worth of work. Click here to enlarge Click here to enlarge

Did I mention that we switch from a Monday-Friday 7:30am-5pm joint to a 24/7/365 joint next week. And we have a bunch of new staff. And not enough time to train them. And a thousand or so new users. Click here to enlarge

Man, I'm used to just the opposite - several passwords with numbers, characters, upper and lower case, have to change them every two weeks, etc...whenever anyone from IT found someone's cheat sheet of passwords they would freak out and send them a nasty gram about security.
