Shoutout to the IT guy who showed me why my passwords were useless

Last week our office IT guy ran a quick audit on our team's passwords. He pulled me aside and showed me that my "secure" password was in like 3 data breaches from 2 years ago. I had no idea those breach checker sites even existed. He made me use a password manager right there and it took maybe 10 minutes to swap everything over. Has anyone else had an IT person catch them slacking like that?

Doubt anyone's really coming after you that hard.

Bet that energy changes fast when they hit a nerve you didn't even know was there.

Man that's rough but honestly probably saved your ass.
