Yeah, I've tried that. First day in my new job. “Here's your PC. Your user name is [some initials] and your password is abcd1234". I sign in and immediately proceed to change my password to something that doesn't suck. I keep getting an error message about my new password not meeting the complexity requirements. Super confusing... I give up.

Next day: I can now change my password.

Turns out that I couldn't change my password the first day because it had already been changed to abcd1234 that day. I was not impressed.
