Pro tip: if you are meeting your new employer at a coffee shop and he's setting up your company email account, do not loudly tell everyone around you your password.

Bonus: after you say your password out loud, don't say, "that's easy for me to remember because I use it for everything. Oh if it needs to be more secure put an exclamation point at the end."

😑😑😑

JFC. Password managers should be a requirement of every company by now in 2023

The new employer should also not have said hey what password do you want. He should have flipped the laptop around and had him type it in. Failure on both parts.

Haha oh man. Well, a great learning opportunity!

DM them "your password is #gT5Pmr3689W6HG$k61moPmMhOHKE2"

You will be forced to change it at first login.

Ain't nobody got time to track down every user to set up their password.

You sure it’s not the latest scam where you’re the prospective victim πŸ˜‚

They've been talking for an hour and a half. If they are trying to target me, they're playing the long game.

Waiting for you to login with the provided info πŸ˜‚

This is very high end security all around.

Lots of mistakes have been made.

Is it a dick move to approach the account manager and tell him to have users enter their passwords themselves?

I don't think so, asking someone verbally for their password is north Korean

🀣 I think it's because he's a boomer and doesn't know any better.

Bang bang !!

Nostr fixes this

Hmm. I guess if you're using nostr:npub1alpha9l6f7kk08jxfdaxrpqqnd7vwcz6e6cvtattgexjhxr2vrcqk86dsn password manager πŸ˜€

Ye πŸ‘ I remember them old says when I had the one password for every thing I fucked around and ye I found out 😭
