grumbles about work

At my office (library) we are all on Windows 10 machines, with the Windows sign-on and all. Which is fine and dandy; my email is automatically set up when I log in to a different computer and all, and that's nice. I actually log in to different computers a good amount because of the nature of my job -- I have two different departments I work in, plus I have work at the front desk for patrons, and at the phones, where there's a different computer ... I have other concerns about touching all that stuff with CoVid and all, but that's a story I'm sure we're all familiar with.

The reason I'm writing this post, though, the reason I'm grumbling, is that the single sign-on Windows thing does *not* allow me to carry my home directory around between computers, which means that I have to re-setup Firefox and Outlook and all. So I have three *slightly different* signatures on all my machines, and I have to remember to set up Outlook to use plaintext on all of them, and Firefox is just a *little* different on all of them, with different addons and stuff. It's annoying.

I could do it out-of-band, I guess, but it should *just work*.

*grumble grumble*
