I know what the problem is...we are all spending the whole day in forums, online chats, and otherwise goofing off... :thumbs:
I can believe that.
Companies expect more out of you, quicker results, larger work loads, fewer techs, and yet they still spaz out whenever you inquire about raise.
Oh wait... that happens at every job. :p
Yup yup. But teh job of an IT person is kinda like being a prison guard. Not really a whole lot going on until a jail-break happens. But you should be prepared for when it does happen. :DQuote:

Now it's all about cutbacks, saving, trimming, etc.Quote:

Yeah, but eventually you get replaced with a central help desk. And later on that help desk gets replaced with an overseas help desk. Sh!t, by then your convinced that you're speaking with Apoo from The Simpsons and no matter how hard you try, neither of you can understand each other and the problem is eventually solved by a simple fluke of good luck.Quote:
