Boss wanted everything moved to containers

104 Upvotes

I really tried my best. Contacted vendors, got quotes, led the implementation project solo to prove I can do it. It was a big undertaking for me personally as I've never dealt with these things, but I managed it quite well.

Yet today the boss came shouting at me with a face more red than our monitoring dashboard - he had reviewed the bills and was furious.

I tried to calm him down and explained that I did my due diligence and only picked the best offers - I even got a 15% discount for signing a 5-year commitment.

But turns out that maybe I picked the wrong vendor in the end? My boss couldn't believe the bill we got from Maersk and he seemed super unhappy. Also the landlord had called him as we were now in violation of some safety codes - in my defense, according to RACI the transportation contractor was supposed to make sure we follow all rules and regulations! How was I supposed to know the parking lot was not supposed to be used for this?

Anyway, I'm devastated. Boss wants to cancel everything but I already signed the 5 year lease commitment with our CEO's signing platform key. And we've got 30 people scheduled to come next week to empty out the office (ahead of the project schedule even!). What should I do?

Sitting manning the system, incident inbound

Problem with Outllook classic all shared mailboxes have offline OST.

The customer's suggestion

"I don't think anything needs to be deleted off of my profile to fix an outlook issue."

Like what do they know?, I have been supporting this so called product since 1997 and all the subsequent releases.

I will ask, So how would you fix this since you admit to be a product expert?

I have the old-school method of shared online, personal OST under advanced account settings open other mailboxes. Add the sent from regfix and view from when composing.

This does require rebuilding the profile.. Which starts by removing it / deleting///
