And this:
Exactly, it's both and they are different versions...gets pretty confusing for people new to it! The old MSP I worked at would install Server 2012 as a physical server THEN run install/configure/run the actual production OS for the client company in Hyper-V inside the damn physical server's OS. So stupid!! Someone either didn't know how to config type-1 Hyper-V or was afraid of losing RM of it.
Hopefully their manager isn't reading that comment.
I doubt that their manager understands this or would have explained to them at the time that they thought the MSP screwed up.

And for people who have no idea how it works.

And people who don't look it up or ask questions.

Ah IC because Systems Engineer also has the word Engineer, so an Engineering degree is the same thing.
searching for a Senior Systems Engineer/Administrator to support the Engineering group and tools. The incumbent will have a minimum of a Bachelor Degree in Engineering or Computer Science.
Education:
Bachelor Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Electrical EngineeringI applied anyway.

Not a single degree with any relationship to SE.

It's a Gov't contractor so I'm not surprised.

When I worked at Lockheed Martin, their "engineers" were mostly old retired teachers that they used to pad their numbers. No one who even know what engineering was in their engineering teams.

below 30 PMs!!

I think we just had a drone fly overhead. Not hobbyist, but gov't drone. Didn't look big enough to be a plane, and had smaller wings.
-
We have NATO fighters and bombers buzz us every three days or so.

Creepy. We live kind of in the middle of nowhere, so it was kind of surprising. Unless it had to do with that job I just applied for......
-
I'm way out in the middle of nowhere. Village of 160 people! On a small island in the sea!
-
Of course, while we are pretty remote, there is only one island between us and Syria so.....

See, it is blatant arrogant declarations like this that make serious and thinking people ignore even the intelligent things that you espouse.

No, they were ACTUALLY old retired teachers. It's not opinion. That's what they were. They told me themselves. It's not arrogance to repeat the information given by the company. None of them were doing technical work, they just hung around.
In what way was that arrogance?

You are generalizing and claiming a fact for an entire global company based on your limited experience with the company.

And like high school English teachers, not engineering professors or something like that. They were actually just college grads hired because they met a government legal regulation for who could staff the project and they projects were paid by the number of people that were hired. So they staffed up with non-technical people because the contracts were for head count.

I didn't say globally. I said in the engineering teams. I worked with a few, they were all the same. I didn't generalize, I provided the information that was observed (and provided by the people who represented their engineering department.)
You always add implications to what I say. You assume arrogance and so you find it where it does not exist. You carry that prejudice into your reading of the statement. While my statement did not say that this was global and every team, it left it open, sure, and because you decided that is what I must mean, you treated it as if I said it when I did not.
