Because most of the non-insignificant ones still CAN'T be, under Windows, to this day. So special people get a completely separate account with pseudo-admin rights. I have to enter those credentials several times a day.

Then I spoke to a help desk guy, who said he had to enter his domain admin account password 40 TIMES a day.

What a waste.



40 times? I enter passwords probably double that per day.
