I love the visuals you add to these posts.<br/>

That part about the finance system running wine and Cygwin truly made me burst out laughing and my ribs hurt. So, thank you kindly for that.<br/>

Helpdesk really are so valuable to have on-side. Not just in an incident, but I’ve routinely used them as my shadow IT spies.<br/>
<br/>
- Helpdesk: Hey, what’s that icon?<br/>
- User: Oh, that’s the Access Database that we put all of our sensitive data into and does the critical reporting<br/>
- Helpdesk: Oh... that’s interesting.<br/>
- User: Yeah. Btw, could you help us with that? It’s been really slow, so we’ve had to start keeping it on a USB drive<br/>
- Helpdesk: Alright, can I put you on hold for a moment? click! Hey, sysadmin! Do you know anything about this insanity?!<br/>

Glad you’ve made it out the other side, sounds like the company still has a lot to do in culture building, but you’ve done well. Nice work!</t>
