Notes from the Author
You waited in line at the club and had your ID ready for an hour. You make it to the bouncer, show it and have a wonderful night. It’s closing time and last call. Another great night! It’s next week and you walk up to the bouncer and wonder why you have to show your ID again!! Doesn’t he know you!!!
This is what a Workstation, the computer that you use for your employment, has to deal with on a regular basis. Access to networks, Folders and Files, Shared drives, Etc. If your Workstation has been logged in and left on for x amount of days, it’s about the equivalent of being left in the bathroom at the club, after closing!
Rebooting/Restarting/Powering down. All of these have a purpose and place in the tech world.
