      Well good luck with it bud. I'll tell you what i've worked out over time, job descriptions rarely accurately reflect what's involved in a job.

      They usually describe a role that appears much more difficult than the job actually is. So don't be put off by something that sounds like it may be above you.

          • Participate in a diverse team environment that handles incoming complex and sometimes intense calls/chats

          Nope, this means your going to be getting reamed out by clients for things that aren't in your control.

          really - what job in IT exists that this doesn't happen?

          IT likely doesn't get reamed out at a mortuary. . .

          So I think you are joking, but as someone who has done mortuary IT... you are correct. It's a laid back environment that I really like.

            weird question : Anybody else having issues with ML loading replies?
            Whenever I go to make a new post i have to refresh my page 3 or 4 times to get it to where I can type.

            Have not seen that.

              Believe it or not, lots of IT doesn't have this happen. Fortune 500 rarely has it, healthy businesses rarely have this even small ones.

                Told him I would do it if he wanted and he told me he doesn't trust that I could that...

                Gee, what a horrible thing to say to someone. I'd be leaving ASAP. They sound like horrible people.

                What's funny is that he trusts a random stranger running a scam to do it for money, but not the employee that is protecting him for free.

                    You know how to ask questions and where to get advice. You could pretty safely take any level of IT role and as long as you don't get cocky you'd pretty much be able to pop online, ask about anything and everything, and get shit done quickly enough that no one would suspect you were learning as you go.

                                            really - what job in IT exists that this doesn't happen?

                                            IT likely doesn't get reamed out at a mortuary. . .

                                            So I think you are joking, but as someone who has done mortuary IT... you are correct. It's a laid back environment that I really like.

                                            yes, 'twas a joke ; get it - Mortuary ; Dying. ..
