So the Shitshow has done it again. Every several months or so, the company changes the door combination to the main access area. This is always fun because of the super cautious way the Shitshow goes about this process.
First of all, it's always a surprise. The Shitshow has policy not to share the door combinations via email for "security reasons." While this sounds secure, I'm pretty sure any burglar could guess the code if they had enough time. But rather than sending out a mass email, they rely on word of mouth. To be specific, managers are forbidden to email the password to their employees and must instead tell them in person. So rather than relying on the most common method of communication that managers use ---email, they rely on using the least common form of communication that managers use ---talking to their underlings.
You can probably guess what happens next. The next day, you come into work and the combination doesn't work. You try it again - it doesn't work. Then you look up and see a sign on the door "Combination has been changed. Please see you manager for the new combination." The problem is that the manager is behind that door. So how can you ask him? You can try calling him (assuming you have his number programmed into your phone), but being that he is a manager, he's likely to be in a meeting anyway.
So you wait there, maybe knock a few times, but the door never opens. You continue to wait there until someone finally comes along that either knows the code or is simply exiting. That's when you grab the door before it closes and pass through. But if you can tailgate behind someone else who has opened the door, then what's the purpose of having a door code in the first place, much less being so cautious when changing it?
Because the secret door code is more secure than my job, I throw rocks.
