Yeah , most of the people in our IT don't know how to use windows, much less teach anyone else about it.
They just try, and often fail to lock it down so that people can't break it. They remote in and make something slightly less bad and say, "well that was all setup wrong". but they never teach anyone a thing - or apparently learn how to use install all this ms shite they buy before they force it on us.
I think that's the real issue with linux. IT people don't want to learn it, and learn how to secure it - because many of them - especially the mamagers have got imposter syndrome about windows or something or stockholm syndrome, i dunno..
At least when they fuck it up with miscsoft they can often blame MS - and often they've got a reasonable case ans MS does seem to keep fucking them over with updates.
