There’s nothing for admins in the UI, but since I have access to the database itself then probably the easiest way would be to add an email address. The problem is: how would I know you are the same person and not just trying to hijack an account? If there’s no email address on the account, I’m not sure if there’s any reasonable process to recover it without risking handing accounts to the wrong person.
I hope they release an update to fix it. Lot’s of instances are on 0.19 now but a few large ones that make up a significant portion of users are not yet updated. It’s a massive issue when people can’t get onto the site but the fix is in their browser/app! Like you experienced, they won’t necessary know there is something they can do to fix it.
I’m on leave, but everyone has returned to work and have been needing to get in touch. It kinda ruins leave and I’m thinking I’ll come back to work early and recoup my time later in the year.
Has been a cracker holidays though, especially this last week. Have loved connecting with my kids over new hobbies and interests.
This past leave break, I deliberately didn’t check emails, answer text messages or phone calls (voice mail also disabled on network). It was awesome. Didn’t worry about anything. They should respect the fact you’re on leave, but there is always the idea they think you won’t mind if they ask a quick question.
“Sorry to bother you while you’re on leave but…”
Normally I do go silent, I made the fatal mistake this year of work not providing a work number, so have had people calling my personal number (sometimes a gamble). Also has sucked being in a fledgling managerial position and having a huge number of “issues” that have cropped up (starting a new service so haven’t quite got the infrastructure in place yet in terms of phones etc).
When I’m on leave, I don’t check work stuff. If people kept hassling me when I was on leave, that totally doesn’t count.
I’d also expect people not to contact me unless it was super urgent (and that shouldn’t happen, there should always be someone else who can fill in, and at least get it to a state that it can wait until you’re back). I’m lucky to work somewhere big enough for those processes, though.
I’ve been putting a garden shed together, which I’ve never done before. It came flat packed, and the instructions are not as good as I’d hoped. It says to drill holes here and there and all over the place, and it’s not always clear to me where or what way around parts are.
I am slowly and carefully doing it because you can’t un-drill a hole! I don’t exactly want holes all over my shed! I’ve already worked one one of the walls I had back to front, so lucky I didn’t drill that one until later.
I put together our shed myself and it took me a couple of days. Ended up drilling around 200 holes plus rivets. Broke a couple drill bits in the process as well. They also get blunt after so many holes, so make sure you have spares!
I’ve already broken one 😆 There’s a square pipe (is it still called a pipe if it’s square?) that I had to drill holes in, and snapped one off. Ended up hammering it through, so now it’s on the inside of the pipe 😆. Got my rivet in though, that’s what’s important.
