wqhy would you bring a laptop to work

have fun getting problems later on.
Doing work on private devices means in case of problems the device belongs to the company as long as it isn't clear that there are no companyfiles on it anymore. Happened to one of my coworkers that got fired two years ago...

you sound like a fag and not because of the mac although you still are

Apple here,
OH NO YOU CAUGHT US!
We where so desperate for the money of weeaboos that we came up with an elaborate false story in order to trick people.

OP here.
This actually did happen today.
The fact you find it unbelievable is the very reason i made a fucking post about it.
It shocked me that this level of autism is real and not just something you see on /g/ or by 13 year olds.

I use a ThinkPad, in fact I use them religiously. The only laptops other than ThinkPads I could see myself using are either the Xiaomi Mi Air things or a Let's Note, pic related. Too expansive to justify buying though.

I don't buy Macs because I don't personally like them, and Apple a shit. That being said, if these guys were seriously giving you shit for owning a Mac, that's pretty autistic. If it was lighthearted banter, I could find that funny.
>>
>>58362107

my sister had a mac book for the longest time, it always gave her problems while gaming and we gave her shit for it, but she has two kids

that thing has taken a beating


>spilled water

>spilled breast milk
>spilled peach schnapps
>dropped on the ground`
>thrown on the ground
>tumble off a chair
>tumble off a bed
>tumble down some stairs
>carpet, hardwood, concrete

the thing was basically indestructible

she still couldn't play games for shit and we gave her shit for having a mac, it was more of a joke than anything really
>>
>>58362577
I remember one thread where this guy called a kid in his class a macfag and everyone ended up glaring at him, he couldn't comprehend what he'd done wrong

Please tell me you personally offered to clean it up

>>58362605
Yea i dont think many mac users expect their macs to be able to play video games.
I openly admit to having one purely for the pretty OS and hardware, my choice. Its not like I've never owned a regular computer before.

Why the fuck would you bring your own laptop to work? Why the fuck would you support the costs of working yourself? Maybe the stereotype of mac users is true.

There are two kinds of offices (in IT). The ones with macbooks, and the ones where applel is laughed at. I work at the latter and couldnt be happier

9/10

You hit all the main points:
>mac users are young + hip
>PC users are 30 year old manchildren
>PC users trash talk on the Mac, definitely not the Macfag bragging and getting told off
>Reinforce that they are all manchildren (even though they run the business and you're an 18 year old intern)
>Show that Mac user's have GFs and lives, while PC users just drink and play video games

No ISP is going to have you connecting your personal machine to the management network.

I don't believe that Apple would pay an employee to do this, so you're either a ruseman or sad unpaid shill who is defined by his laptop choice.
>>
>>58362851
Why wouldn't you use a laptop you prefer over a company provided one?
>Why the fuck would you support the costs of working yourself?
It's not like he had to buy the laptop for work.
>>
>>58363006
>It's not like he had to buy the laptop for work.
Not understanding the meaning of "wear and tear"
>Why wouldn't you use a laptop you prefer over a company provided one?
Because its a job, and in case someone didn't tell you we don't live in a feudalistic system anymore, the company is responsible for providing you the tools you need to perform your job duties. They won't help you when you're in a bind why should you help them?
>>
>>58363033
>Not understanding the meaning of "wear and tear"
Quit handling your shit like an ape.
>Because its a job, and in case someone didn't tell you we don't live in a feudalistic system anymore, the company is responsible for providing you the tools you need to perform your job duties. They won't help you when you're in a bind why should you help them?
Again, it's not like he had to buy the laptop for work; he chose to use it.

Little did the chubby manchild know that my girlfriend's name was Steve.

Say you drive a van, that's your transportation.
You start working for local delivery company
>Ok anon let's get you a vehicle for you to do your job
>Not needed, I got my own.
>>
>having to bring your own computer at work


fake and gay ;)
>>
>>58363312
That's an extremely poor analogy. Vehicles require regular maintenance, meanwhile you can use a laptop for 10 years without having to do anything to it.
>>
>>58363356
>That's an extremely poor analogy.
It's really not, it is exactly the proper analogy, you may not like it, but it is exactly the same principle.
>>
>>58363375
Anon, car analogies are rarely proper, yours is an outstanding example of that.
>>
>>58363283
How about you tell me what you actually know about big systems?
Just because you say snarky shit doesn't make up for the fact that I could list of plenty of in house configuration, regedit, group policy and other environmental issues associated with a true work laptop to be integrated fully into in house systems.

But if you're a dumbass (which is the most likely scenario), it wouldn't mean a thing.

Fact is, if you think its cool for you to mix personal and work computers outside of the VPN + remoting in, you are a retard.
>>
>>58363416
Okay, kid
>>
>>58363387
It's very simple, its a resource that is yours.

Your employer's job is to give you the tools you need to perform your job. You shouldn't have to bring your own resources in to do it.

If you can't understand that simple concept that is your problem.
>>
>>58363356
Software updates, you've probably hear of them. Also try running your browsers with a computer that is a decade old and tell me

I think you're trolling
>>
>>58363416
This, usually you'll get a laptop to work on owned by the company and that integrates with their policy.

that laptop is a cute
>>
>>58363483
Yes you never take your OWN laptop to work unless it's specifically specified that you can bring your own laptop (BYOD)
>>
>>58363446
It's not that simple. A van requires maintenance and costs money to own over time, a computer is just a computer. I mean, you should maintain it but it's definitely not as necessary as a vehicle. And again, he didn't have to bring a laptop, he chose to. The company's not making him buy equipment for work, he's simply choosing to work with equipment he prefers.

>>58363476
How about you just come to work with me, when the see the massive retard I'm with all the time they'll most likely just assume I'm one too.

No OP, you and everyone that works there is dumb.

>>58363524
>he's simply choosing to work with equipment he prefers.
yeah he's an idiot. and you're an idiot if you don't understand the concept or your employers obligations towards the employee. let me put it in terms 4chan will understand. his employer is being a greedy jew bastard by letting his employee bring in his own tools

>yes goy bring your own shit, when it breaks you replace it since you decided it is what you prefer to do anyway.
>>
>>58363587
But that's the opposite of what you'd want; I thought you were trying to tell me how to sound stupid.

>>58363601
For the tenth goddamned time, the employer fulfilled their obligation and he chose to use something else anyway. I have an extremely hard time believing you're actually this fucking dense.
>>
>>58363601
I agree with you, any outfit that make you bring your own comp outside of a fresh startup is not professional or intelligent
>>
>>58363650
They're not making him bring the fucking laptop.
>>
>>58363665
They're allowing it aren't they?
>>
>>58363676
Making him bring his own laptop and allowing him to bring his own laptop are two different things.
>>
>Today i learned that anyone that gets all bitchy about macs for no reason are just 30 year old chubby virgins with a chip on their shoulder.

Sounds like they all browse /g/. Just ignore them and keep plowing your gf OP
>>
>>58363702
Not necessarily, they shouldn't allow him to use his personal device to begin with. They'll piss and moan if something happens and he asks them for equipment.
>>
>>58363627
I think you do sound stupid. I think you missed the point, but I'll just say bless your heart!

Think of that sticker as a way to make sure everyone around is on the same page as me prior to personal interaction with you.
>>
>>58363730
Not necessarily
This isn't debatable, choosing to bring a laptop and being forced to are different and that's a fact.

>>58363737
Go fuck a chainsaw sideways.
>>
>>58362951
wrong, I was an intern at a private ISP. They either assign you a lappie or you can come in with yours. Depends on your preferences

Dude's an intern. Totally different.

I already outlined a few reasons why doing that is retarded.
Then we established a baseline that you aren't able to actually comprehend the technical aspects and value of using pre-existing images on a specific type of hardware.

Then you had a retard fit and are butt mad you are faced with reality.

I bet you own a Fedora.

Why all these panasonic ultra light are japan-only?
Is there seriously no market for such a device in the west?

I'd gladly use one but it has this horrible nip keyboard.

It even has a fucking VGA port.
And the colorscheme is lovely.

I dunno but it's going to piss me off when I get mine, I hate ISO return keys.

>>58363881
No, you probably aren't going to be doing system critical changes.

All flaming aside, if they let you guys bring in your own hardware to deal with important in-house systems, they are either not a very smart company or just don't care.

I'll tell you now all flaming aside, that if that is the case, I would look for another outfit once you could pad your resume.
Working at a company run by retards will damage your career and make transitioning much harder than it needs to be.

Even more surprising, it's a 10" convertible with a Blu-ray drive.
