      Ap is online.

      Reboot the tablet - User: " hey it's on airplane mode."
      me: "thatd be why it's not working."
      User: "these kids do this shit on purpose to annoy me."

      Just saw someone refer to NIC as a "niq"

      Wow, just.... WTF

      and they did it 3 times in the email..
      I was just baffled, and had guess they meant NIC, which thankfully, I was correct.

      It's amazing how often people get the simple things wrong because they just know a "sound" and don't realize what the full names of things are.

      Like people who say MAC when they mean a Macintosh computer. MAC is an short for Machine Access Code, just like NIC is short for Network Interface Card. Knowing that, you really can't get them wrong. And in reverse, lots of people don't realize that the Apple Mac is short for the Apple Macintosh (literally a type of apple) and so often think that it's an abbreviation for something that they don't know. So you get Apple people who don't know that Mac is short for Macintish, and networking people that don't know the meaning of MAC!

      The simplest things that we take for granted.

      I've been one of those that confused MAC with Mac... but I learned the difference.
      also, great point.

      he looked me dead in the eye and said "does that make sense?"

      and your answer?

      "not really.."

      Perfect.

      Might make it worse.

      Make what worse? I'm assuming he is in an at-will employement state. So honestly, if they want him gone he's gone. This matters not. It is also the appropriate answer to the question. Because it is the truth.

      That is correct.

      Unrealted to the thread, but I just got a call from one of this guys locations due to this being my oncall week.
      So I called my vendor, and told them what was going on, and they are going to call the site directly to help them with a resolution. . .
      Sucks that I can't do my job during my on call, but this issue was out of my scope of understanding anyway.

      The Network team is adding another AP to the Site....
      And they're moving all iPads to 5ghz Radio on the WIFI ..
      and They're moving the AP .
      And they might replace one or two with a much more powerful AP ...

      All of this was told to me by my boss after he had his meeting this morning , and he looked me dead in the eye and said "does that make sense?"

      Now I am being kept completely out of the loop on any issue/Resolution with this site.
      my boss and coworker are having a meeting about it, but they have taken the conversation else where.

      Are you still working at that Diner Point of Sales hell hole company or have you found other employment and just landed a shitty job?

      Still at the Point of Sales job.

      So when do you pour a gallon of gasoline on the desk, light it on fire and walk away?

      I'm guessing relatively shortly, I'm calling a few places I've put applications in to to check on the status.
