Too many accounts

 I have several user accounts on my phone - it's my work phone, but I'm allowed to use it in personal use also. That requires me to have another accounts.

And I just can't remember passwords. Few days ago I had to change my "main" which I use to log in my work system. And because of that, my ALL work passwords had to changed, too. And by now I have no idea what my new passwords are (each are different, one needs to be at least 20 characters, numbers, capitals etc. One cannot have numbers or any special character and must not be longer than eight characters. I wrote them down, and I can't find the bloody paper anymore. So I need to change each of them again. And none of them cannot be the same than 25 previous ones. My imagination is drained completely by now. (it was our IT security that told everyone just to keep passowrds written in a paper, because no-one can't figure out which password goes where...)

But at least I got my Teams working (my supervisor couldn't do that) and I still have my email working. And my calendar.

If that isn't too much to my long term memory, I have three credit cards which each of course have different pin codes. My vpn needs a pin code. My phone has, not one but two different pin codes, and my net bank has one, too. Adn hb is wondering why I don't want to use out front door, which has an electronic lock which has a pin code.

I hate passwords. I hate pin codes.
