Who's an unlikely expert on wireless interference? Who has an itchy email trigger finger? Who hates following the rules? Who thinks workers become human when they leave the office? Think you know? Take the quiz and find out.
You know the drill: Match the quote to the quoted then check your answers in the answer key.
The quotes1. "Sometimes I send messages I shouldn't send. Like the time I told that girl I had a crush on her over text message. Or the time I sent that late night e-mail to my ex-girlfriend that we should get back together." 2. "We have both made a grave mistake (in) misrepresenting our revenue to the board. Looking back at the time we thought we would be able to right the wrong and correct our representation, but we have not been able to do this." 3. "Everybody eventually leaves work ... and becomes a person." 4. "The current procedure for dealing with unruly passengers should be adequate." 5. "There is clearly no reliable technology that can protect wireless microphones from the interference that comes from new portables devices operating in the same or adjacent channels. Static and audio dropouts due to interference from an unlicensed mobile wireless device would create a devastating distraction." 6. "I HATE all the rules that I need to follow, and I also HATE breaking them. It would be far better for me to 'retire' from employment and work with MySQL and Sun on a less formal basis." |

Either way you look at it Microsoft Data Center management did not follow standards or best practices in this failure. In which case it makes me wonder more about the outsourcing of corporate data much less personal data.
