Well what do you ITMer's do for a living?

So what does everyone do for a living, I was just interested to see what positions you hold, are you studying, unemployeed etc...

Go For It!

The future is broken and boring and nothing but breakdowns, the future is TRANCEDOWN!

Your car should be your only partner...it looks good, goes hard, gets turned on by turning the key, never answers back, you dont have a problem spending cash on it (as you know it will love it!), usually does what you want it to do (And if it doesnt, you know why). No mind games. It doesnt howl. Get PMS. Sounds good.
What more could you want?

Most Enterprise Service Providers do blow...

They cant afford to pay for decent staff over the past few years, due to economic reasons...

If they want to pay for a CCNA or an MCSE or some guy thats just finished a TAFE course or is a graduate, thats all they will get!

It's actually the sales staff that are the problem.
When I call them they always say
"Yeah we have it in stock"
I now know that means
"I have no idea what that product even is or if we can get it"
Why can't they just be honest for a fucking change and tell me from the get go that it is going to take 3 weeks for it to come in.

Fourth year computer systems engineering at flinders. Engineering bites copious ass, I'm just here to get my bit of paper and then i'm off to japan!

This compact disc is made from analog masters recorded without noise reduction. Half the tracks, in fact, were recorded in a dismal, cheap basement eight-track studio with puddles of water on the floor. Digital technology will now faithfully reproduce these noisy, low-fi, un-professional masters at great expense. Feel stupid yet?
