Non-IT people are so cringe man.

Non-IT people are so cringe, man.

We had this meeting at work to introduce a new system for storing and cataloging passwords, and of course, the non-IT crowd just couldn’t handle it. Every time we mentioned "password hygiene," you could practically see the eye rolls and hear the snickers.

"Oh no, more 'password hygiene' stuff," they’d groan, like we're making this up for fun. It's like, sorry for wanting to keep your accounts secure—maybe try taking it seriously?

Meanwhile, these are the same people who still use "password123" for everything and then wonder why they keep getting hacked. But hey, don’t mind us—we’re just the ones cleaning up the mess when your "Netflix123" password inevitably gets compromised.

And the jokes they make? Yikes. "Honey, I’ll change our kid’s diapers in a bit, gotta improve my password hygiene first!" Yeah, laugh it up, but guess who's calling us in a panic when they can’t access their emails because their account got locked?

Honestly, it’s hilarious and sad at the same time. They’re probably the type who’d be in the hospital, and instead of following basic security protocols, they’re still making jokes about passwords while their accounts are getting breached left and right.

Cringe level: off the charts.

Creative thread you have here Mr - we've seen nothing like this in the last 20 years. I can just imagine you sitting there conjuring this up in your head before commiting and then finally clicking 'submit'
