I'm friends with our tech guy and I still notice that attitude in em. I ignore it and sometimes have to say, "Just fix it, I've got a shit ton of work to do." I do always make sure to express my gratitude. One thing that bugs me though is they'll just walk up in my office without knocking or walk in when I'm not in. Fucking knock sometime and give me some kind of warning that way I don't leave confidential information out.




I meant try working as a Network admin, or in a Tech support role. In all honesty I can say that it is the most stressful, thankless job that I have ever done...and I've done everything.

If you're not there, why does it matter if they knock or not?..as far as confidential information goes...these people have access to every bit of information in the entire company and most likely have higher security clearance than you, So letting them see confidential information is not a big deal.

I'm not a tech support guy so I'm not going to. And I thank them, but I'm sure there are those who don't. I don't want them in my office because much of the things I do are not for everyone's eyes, even there's. They do tend to be disgruntled I don't like anyone in my office. Yes they do have access to quite a bit of information, but not mine. It is a big deal.

It's because they feel more normal and at home in a big room filled with machines that beep and whirr all day, rather than a normal social setting where people must interact and they can't just hit the big "X" in the upper right corner to close you down.

There's things that don't need to be seen. Like new policy or possible expansions... things that are still up in the air. Makes you paranoid when you come in your office and someone is in it. Rumors don't help moral. = Pen0r You know.

You are right about that. I once saw an excel sheet with the company payroll. Needless to say i was pissed when i saw what some of the guys were making.

Oh i just watched a few episodes of Nick Burns the company computer guy and they are hilarious. Lots of jokes must be lost on the general populace though. Like when nicks dad say "Like in the seventies, we used to say: Why don't you read the manual instead and stop fiddling with your Wang." Funny if you've ever seen a Wang computer.

i just got off the phone with our pc guy. he was the rudest most condescending piece of shit. i was just asking when he was going to move our wifi attenna so i can use it in my new office. its the same with these guys at every place ive worked. honestly that jimmy fallon skit from SNL "nick burns computer guy" was 100% dead on. i think its the only place in their lives they have power, so tey love flexing it. anyway the guy was like "why are you calling me, ill get to it when i get to it", then explained some shit to me like i was a baby.

this is my new office it needs cleaned up badly..its pretty big though and i got a mini fridge







I was a tech guy for 6 years.

I recently just flipped out and quit the profession forever.

I'm unemployed and sell shit on eBay and do gigs to pay my rent now.

I will never, ever, ever work in the IT field again.

Think of it like this...

you know how kids are annoying as hell, with their really blatant questions, but you can't get mad at them for fear of retaliation from their parents or whatever? well that's what being a network admin is like.

"WHY DID MY WINDOWS CRASHED?"

"MY DSL EMAIL WON'T OPEN IN EXCEL, DO I NEED TO GOOGLE SOMETHING?"

then there's the people that think they're "in the know" and they'll stop by or call and say "oh hey is the infrastructure network dsl motherboard server down for a format reboot?" and then when you look at them and say "what?" they get all pissed.

i think i'm done for now.

whenever I do someones pc for em I treat em with the respect they deserve...I don't even charge anything cause I honestly think getting payed like $50 an hour to install an operating system and some programs/drivers etc is ridiculous

I'm not certified or anything and I'm really not that great on teh hardware end of things but I'm pretty good with software
