    This is old phart phred here, on Friday they shut down the engineering division of my company after lunch, so smart phone, computer and emails locked down. Total blindside without warning. Did not get a chance to change my forum account, and had no luck so far guessing my password yet before it kicks me out. Guess I will be job hunting Monday. I guess they think whoever they outsource to, will keep the companies best interest in mind.

    Yep I was a dumb arse for using my company email on my account, because I didn't have a personal email, being a Luddite like DD.

    Good thing was, I got a PayPal fired off to tricky dicky for $20 right before lunch, that was tied back to that email address, so PayPal was easy then

    If I didn't know better DD, I think you left out the "old" of my user name on purpose.

    Nope on the password, my usual general passwords don't work so far, but I might have been drinking while surfing, and found this insane assylem. Hopefully admin can assist. But I just might be am imposter who just happens to know your weakness for deluxe toffee.

    I have to write mine down in a book or I would soon forget them, getting older is a pain I would forget my balls if they weren't in a bag.

    You sure your company doesn't have webmail activated so you can login from home with your regular work credentials?
