IT Geeks. Gotta love 'em.

You'll find 99.9% of the time the dickheads in the I.T. industry are the ones with formal qualifications. My opinion may be biased, however I speak truth.

Qualified Persons Attitude: "I'm qualified, I have an ego to boot, I can get any job with my Qualifications"

Un-qualified Persons Attitude: "Fuck, need to prove myself or be fired, took ages to get this job with no qualifications"

Totally wrong, I'm a total dickhead and I've got fuck all qualifications.

I just know I'm brilliant, hence the ego...

Agree that many qualified guys are clueless, especially those with quals and limited real world experience.

Those that can, do, those that cant get certifications.

And verily the lusers read the word of the apostle Simon and they did tremble and speak thusly "There is no god but the BOFH"

That was fucken beautiful.

As is commonly the case, the truth is somewhere in the middle in my opinion.

Ideally, IT (just like Finance, Payroll, HR etc) works in partnership with "the business" to produce business outcomes.

If the IT department you work for has deteriorated to the point you are at open war with the business and users, then it might be time to find a new company to work for (or maybe even a new profession).

No need to be an attention whore about it, go and be brilliant in a quiet corner please.

Judging from your profile picture, you look like a Linux whore too.
If true, this explains the lack of qualifications and ego.

I admit to dabbling in Linux but I can give it up at any time

I'm feeling much happier with the world now.

I just went through the proxy logs, found every single non work related site a luser I dont like visited in the last month and added them all to the blacklist. Sadly we permit "limited non work related internet usage provided it doesnt interfere with wank wank wank" so I cant just have him fired. Sent 4 other users to the wall this month thou for surfing porn. Silly bastards should know better than to not share with me.

I reckon I was pretty close with my post. You know, the one before all the shit slinging started.

You are uniquely special, Sniper.

This explains why you still have a job and yet have managed to post an incredible amount of worthless shite. However I will admit that I hold some admiration for your lack of self control where this forum is concerned.

It really shows the grasp KiwiBiker has on peoples lives.

Anyway, I did have a point but I've lost it.

Sniper, if you give me a job can I sit on KB all day stirring shit?

[Lias]

You know, the one before all the shit slinging started.

You missed out on the fun part!

[WRT]

Watching people stroking their own ego doesnt really count as the "fun part" for me I'm afraid.

[The_Dover]

Not a voyeur then WRT?

I'll stroke yours if you like

You are right though. Bit of ego crap going on. That is why I am here. To make sure this thread turns to shit and sent to PD. Louy should of known better to post such a thing on a website full of nerds.

Before you know it people are going to start comparing their system specifications. Then the RPG/FPS game gloating will start.

Anyway.
