Stop de verchatbotterisering van de helpdesks!

2. Don't ever hand over information, or change your account info to something that would allow someone else to have access to your account (unfortunately common discord scam); most helpdesks are able to look up your account with minimal info (and if they need "Access" they are 100% lying)

BREAKING NEWS!

We at ZCorp industries have managed to crack the code and gained access to a DEVELOPER'S PC! Our HelpDesks are currently thoroughly investigating its contents, but rest assured, we've already found a treasure trove of WIP content.

We'll keep you all posted!

that sounds like one of those jobs with loads of sitcom-worthy content but all the pressure, says someone who accidentally made a career out of working on helpdesks

I just want to be spending my available time promoting good work and creating opportunities for emerging creators. Not on dealing with constant technical issues and helpdesks that don't resolve them...

Duitse instanties en helpdesks die AI-chatbots inzetten is echt het slechtste van beide werelden.

Zeg ik na een middag lang internetproblemen verhelpen en een nieuwe energierekening afsluiten.

my favorite pass time is looking through helpdesks and seeing people lack common sense or decency. i do feel bad for the TOs having to deal with them though

Nieuwe dag, nieuwe helpdesk.

Het valt me op dat helpdeskmedewerkers vaak gewoon niet luisteren naar de vraag, en niet bereid zijn om van een script af te wijken om gewoon even te horen waar je hulp bij nodig hebt.

Niet alle helpdeskmedewerkers. Niet alle helpdesks.

Gaan die helpdesks dan eindelijk door hebben hoezeer ze op mijn zenuwen werken?
Een groeiend aantal bedrijven overweegt AI-systemen te implementeren die emoties van klanten kunnen herkennen, bijvoorbeeld bij de klantenservice. Daarvoor waarschuwt de Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, die zegt dat daar grote risico's aan verbonden zijn. #Tweakers

Orgs use helpdesks differently, but often they serve two purposes:

1. To help with tech or service issues
2. As a buffer for the higher ups to soak most of the negativity from policy decisions.

What you want to do is aim at making 1 impossible. Be persistent, speak to a manager, eat their time.

I am dead set against open plan library design because it creates conflict of this exact nature between adult and child users that just doesn't need to exist. Let kids have their own space in the library.

(It's also an excuse to cut staffing levels by reducing the amount of staff helpdesks.)

i hope you went ahead and raised this with @vrchat.com's T&S team via the helpdesks contact form as well as reporting the emotes.

Ich finde Homeoffice ja grundsätzlich gut, wenn der Agent eines Helpdesks sich aber offenbar in der Küche befindet und Mittagessen kocht, dann finde ich das eher weniger richtig...🫠

props to IT helpdesks, explaining how to migrate files to someone who cannot accurately describe what's on their screen is Not Easy
February 17, 2025 at 10:28 PM
the only people that work at IT Helpdesks are the funniest transsexual women you have ever met and cis male chasers that hide it with varying degrees of success

no i will not be taking questions or changing my statement

@warren.senate.gov - What can we do to completely disrupt Elons companies? You can't fight them using "nice" tactics. Each of these oligarchs have companies that we CAN disrupt but it has to be in UNISON. Can we flood their helpdesks? Buy and return products that overwhelm their systems?

A year ago LAPSUS$ advanced persistent teenagers attacked Co-op Group and Marks and Spencers by phoning up outsourced helpdesks and asking for access.

My thread for it is still going, and probably will for another few years. cyberplace.social/@GossiTheDog...

I wish people would follow the rule of "if this would waste someone else's time don't do it"
Especially in TO helpdesks and such, they're not being paid for this so please don't act like a court jester for no reason

Os helpdesks/telemarketing e programadores remotos na IND, será q contam como exportação de serviços tarifados pros USA?

Theft and plagarism on a massive scale so companies can fire their customer facing helpdesks and make badly rendered logos without hiring artists

I had questions about FEMA data I was using in a project. The data people answered my e-mails within a day with detailed, accurate information. Beats the hell out of most commercial helpdesks.
