The hardest, the absolute hardest part about my job is humans. Managers, CIOs, project managers, users, other IT workers…all humans.
The machines do whatever I tell them to do.
It’s the humans that ruin everything. I could do the entire technical part of my job in 4 hours a week. And I’m pretty sure most of the other IT workers could do the same.
Egos, bad communication, misunderstandings, disagreements, laziness, short attention spans, power trips, did I mention egos? That’s why I have to work a full work week.
