Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Last job we weren't able to change the last number. So I changed the number in the middle.

Every six weeks is way too often.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, ours can't be too similar to the one before. Pain in the ass.

Oh my passwords have become a complete "use what's in front of you at the moment." A la 'P@pc@n543' (Not my actual password) Then they get written on a sticky. I have become one of those people.

Ann, that's a ferret.

You'd better believe I just change the number on the end.

I'm one of those add-a-number people. One of my passwords is into 3 digits.

Yeah, I feel like having specific requirements for what passwords can be, requiring frequent changes, and not allowing them to be similar to previous passwords just leads to more writing them down.

Guess who loaded up her pillbox with all her meds for the week and left it on her coffee table? And my coffee is broken.

There are upsides to your work monitor being about to catch fire. I came in, turned on my system, then started wondering what electrical item was burning? Was someone soldering? This went on for about 45 minutes, then I noticed something white drift by. I focused in and saw smoke seeping out from the upper left hand corner of my monitor. I turned it off quickly, spent twenty minutes with supervisors going "It was smoking? Really? Wow, that corner's hot!" 2 hours later, I have a new monitor that's bigger and brighter than the one I had before. Neighbors are jealous.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Tim has an arcane system for his personal passwords that I *still* don't understand after all this time. (Except for his default password, which is a combination of the first 3 letters of 3 things from his past, like first dog, street he grew up on, high school mascot [NOTE: those are not the actual things], so if his dog was Fido, his street was Main St., and his high school mascot was a lemur [NOTE: also all untrue], the password would be "fidmailem.")

(Feel free to use "fidmailem" as your password.)

Yikes, Connie! That doesn't seem like the optimal equipment replacement plan. Maybe it's cost-effective, what do I know?
