Sorry, but I doubt it was the team that caused the dealy... more than likely the politics involved in them doing their job that prevented them from completing things in a timely manner.

Eventually my job might even be outsourced.... that's why I'm pursuing a career outside of being a sysadmin.

I think it would be foolish to think you can't get laid off/outsourced. I never thought it would happen, but it's happening to everybody around me. If it happens to me I won't be surprised.


BTW, I want to see a paycheck stub on one of those $65k/year checks before I believe that. Most people who make that much don't live with their parents. :P

Good beni's and job security. Can't beat that. There will never be a shortage of shitbags in the world so you will always have work. :-\ I honestly wouldn't mind doing that, but I'm not sure if I could handle sitting on my ass for that long. :S

My Uncle's a prison guard in Ohio... I wouldn't want that job, screw that. He called in sick one day, the guy who was there in his place was taken hostage by a prisoner and had his throat slit. Screw that. :l He says I should do it too. Right now I'm shooting for a college prof, hopefully at a local CC. Small ass classes, not bad pay, job security ftw. Theres always going to be colleges looking for professors.
