On logging in to our company rewards system, the user is asked to enter a new password to replace the system-generated one. I did so and was greeted with this gem:
Validation Error(s)
- The new password word does not meet the security requirements
That's it. No further information; no clues. I guess I'll just have to figure out what the security requirements are for myself. Maybe it's a test.
Hey: here's a thought: initiative test interviews:
My first comedy sketch idea.
Scene: a busy city street. A hopeful looking job candidate checks his tie and rereads the job interview letter. He checks the address, then looks up. In front of him - at the nominated address is a travel agency. He looks puzzled, but enters anyway. The two occupants of the travel agency: one man tapping at a computer and a woman apparently trying to book a holiday. As he approaches the desk, the man pulls a gun and aims it at the candidate, while the woman rolls off her chair and appears behind the candidate - holding him is a half-nelson. The candidate throws off the woman using a "Ippon Seoinage" judo throw and rolls under the desk, disarming the man with the gun. They all stand up and the candidate is patted warmly on the back and told he's got the job. "Welcome to MI5" says his new boss.
