My company has a 6 month probation period. It also has a 6 month password expiry. Because of all the SSO nonsense, it's quite possible for it to lapse without warning.
It's now a running joke that get locked out on the last day of probation, and you're expecting a call from HR any minute.
The best rule: It's fantasy if there is a sword.

i could add more detail, but it just raises further questions.
The payroll officer was emailed from an aol.com address, not the company email domain.
The bank account was changed to a branch in another state, several thousand kilometres away.
My office was physically next to the payroll officer. Despite sitting 2 metres away, I was not contacted in-person at any stage.
At least two staff members oversaw this.
They just wrote off the money and paid me for the month again.
This triggered a policy change. Bank account updates had to be confirmed in-person after that.
It doesn't take much. I once put my name, job title and employer on LinkedIn. That was enough for someone to email my payroll officer and convince them to change my paycheck to a different bank account. I had no idea until my pay was missed.
My payroll officer was a dumbfuck, but that's all it took.
Linux.
A bank card is far more practical than a second phone. Even if Google Pay did work on GrapheneOS, I would not use it. It looks like a privacy nightmare.
Permitted noise should be inversely proportional to vehicle size (and legally, it kinda is). Too many idiots on the road that can't see over their own bonnet.
Also, get off reddit. Especially that shithole of a sub. It's probably full of drongos who take 2.5 tonne utes into school dropoff zones.
Artificial intelligence built upon real stupidity.
CUPS facing the public internet sounds a bit crazy. Why would you print when not physicly near the printer?
