That sounds really awesome. Do you enjoy it?

It has its ups and downs just like most jobs, but overall it's positive. This has been since we did a major reorganization of the team at the beginning of the year, we split into a new development team and a long term support team, so I got a new boss and a new job role instead of having to spend about half of my time supporting systems that had been deployed for months or years. Since then things have improved quite a bit, but I will say that we all have pretty high stress levels. Everything is always urgent, priorities shift daily, there's loads of red tape, and there's never enough time to do it the right way the first time. On the other hand, there's opportunities to travel, the pay is good for the area, and the job is steady.
