Helpdesks, when staffed by students, are very forgiving entities. The only time they're tough on anybody is when the boss is standing over their shoulder.

Awesome. I'm still awaiting their response.

Thanks for the words guys, you kinda saved me from a bad morning.

He is right. work at my tech building as Desktop support and our help desk does absoluetly nothing. They try to do the lest work possible...and getting yo uintroulbe is more work then not. He is right tho..that converstation is right on.

Yesterday, 4 of us showed up and got paid... $33.75 each to... Order pizza and watch movies.

Of course, if something HAD happened, we would've been there to deal with it (and/or tell them to call back on Monday and talk to one of the bosses because none of us have the access rights to do what they're asking)

What is wrong with you? Man up.

I work at a campus type helpdesk at my school. If I got an email like this and knew of licenscing issues I would personally:

1. Delete it, ignoring it.
2. Reply with the obvious answer.
3. Somehow call you a bit of an idiot, reply with the obvious answer.

I would certainly not report you or log you or anything.

I hope your kidding. You are getting your panties in a bunch over nothing. If they didn't want you to install the software the install files wouldn't be that accessible. Well at least not for students. If it is a problem they will ask you to uninstall it. There are students doing much worse on the school network. I'll give you an A for having a conscious and actually listening to it.

 

[The Pentium Guy]

Alright. Alright. I get it.
*Stops bitching*

Honestly man, pull youself together. How much trouble could you possibly be in?

You make a fatal assumption - not all netadmins have a testable IQ.

 

[FoBoT]

asking was the right thing. unless they are total dicks, they'll just ask you to do whatever

don't sweat it, at least you aren't a pirate

 

[The Pentium Guy]

Woah I got a response back. Apparently it was all a big misunderstanding.
Holy crap. I feel happy.

Now I'm getting ProE !

Don't worry man, this can't be worse than that time you ... um ... wait ... you must be completely sheltered if something this insignificant worries you.
