    I don’t write my password to a post-it by error. It’s fully intentional.

      I do it because I’m forced to change it every 3 months, to a random 9 letter series. I have to write it down, i have no hope of remembering it.

        The reason you are forced to is because there are dumb users who give their password to other people. With these settings, they have “only” 3 months of unregulated access.

        [Internet slap] USE A PASSWORD MANAGER!

        IT would prefer you just remember it, but if you do need to write it down… Try to put some effort into encrypting/hiding it.

        KeePass is free, ask your companies nerd herd about it.
