My work changed their password requirement from minimum 8 characters to 20, with both upper and lower case letters.

I went with: 2013CorvetteGrandSport

I should not forget that one. ​​​​​

Anything else you'd like to share with the world, like your credit card, banking info and social security number?

Where is it that you work?

And what are you going to do when they make you update it every 90 days?

Ok ... I was reading the OPs post wrong ... I read it as a minimum of 8 to a max of 20

Why in the hell is he telling us this anyway ?

I think I am just old and confused ... I still don't get the idea of this whole thread

Oh well ...

Yeah, it's really appropriate to post your password to ANYTHING on the internet.

Fine and good but I have to change my password every month at work and it has to be completely different than anything that I've used.

Your password should include special character, your work should require special characters in addition to Capitals and Numbers.

Actuality why are they still using just user name and password, should they be on two factor with a PIV card or something?

I should not forget that one. ​​​​​
We now know your password, first name, 1st letter of last name, where you live. Its in your public profile.
It wont be too hard for someone to figure out where you work and your user name for your work account.
Do yourself a favor and change your password ASAP before your company gets hacked and you lose your job.

Also 00411CF is his license plate and that he went to a Celine Dion concert and has a great dane. He had made a lot of his information public on this forum.

​​​​​​There is enough here that someone malicious could do something, thankfully I think most of its on this forum would never do something malicious .
