Am I the only one who used the same password for everything until a coworker got phished last month?

It finally clicked when our office manager in Austin had her bank account drained after reusing her work password, and I realized I'd been doing the exact same thing for over a decade what made you finally switch to a manager?

Ngl, I was the idiot who used "Password123" for everything until I locked myself out of my own Netflix account and had to reset it through email, which I also forgot the password to. Felt like that scene in a movie where the hacker has to guess their own security questions. Took a full hour of my life just to watch stranger things season 3.

lol bro that's the most relatable thing I've read all week. My wake-up call was when I tried logging into my old MySpace account for nostalgia and realized I'd been using the same "Hunter2" password since middle school. Ended up locked out of my email recovery and had to answer a security question I set when I was 14 about my favorite pet's name - which I forgot because the cat died like a decade ago lmao.
