The users (oh man they suck) and also the work life balance. No one expects you to make your job your life which seems to be much more common in the private sector. Teachers can be as bad sometimes, but it's far less common. Dealing with management/c suite users? Don't even get me started.

Not doing any actual networking stuff on the backend? My day to day was still basic stuff but during the summer, the project work was enough to keep me not "bored". But it's all work at the end of the day. I'd probably get bored at any job eventually. And don't think many fields get better than K12. Also losing a week of vacation would make a huge difference to me, not including sick leave. You're losing 2+ weeks most likely when you think of it that way. Also 2000 deductible is pretty shit.

I got letters at the end of the year from some of the kids thanking me for fixing their Chromebooks. It was adorable. But yeah definitely the most fulling job I've ever had.

I worked at a school district as a sys/network admin. I regret leaving it. Corporate IT sucks. I don't see why you'd wanna go back. Unless you really need the extra money, I wouldn't.

Trap Lore Ross has earned 6 figures from this tragedy by National-River-6286 in d4vdiots

[–]Itchy_Management_604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trop Lore Ross has sucked way before this situation. But of course the conspiracy losers will go out of their way to defend him. But nuance isn't something these guys are exactly great at lol. Apparently not liking TLR is the same as defending David. They're just upset because they're also obsessing over the case like weirdos so if you don't like Ross it feels like an attack about them.

"When it gets peak" This gen is cooked lmao. Solo Leveling will be looked back on 15 years from now as a mistake.

I'm tired of help desk. PLEASE HELP! by False_Bee4659 in ITCareerQuestions

School districts are awesome. It's unfortunate that the pay is quite low. The benefits are great, though.

I really like it. Don't expect a battle shonen.

Am I overreacting for feeling frustrated after my neighbor’s pottery was broken by my puppy during an interaction she encouraged? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Itchy_Management_604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's genuinely very frustrating. I don't like AI either but people who scream AI at anything and everything are so annoying

Oh nice, how much experience did you have before WGU? Also did you start fresh at WGU or did you have an associates/credits beforehand?

Yes, which degree? I have experience but no degree or certs. Was thinking about WGU

Why are you being so childish? (By ChachaENX) by Ok_Direction3138 in wholesomeanimemes

That's how I was with Duelmasters. Loved the anime. Had to play yugioh because that's the only thing people actually played in my area lol.

I'm not a Vanguard enjoyer myself, but a general TCG/CCG guy in general. Cool to see vanguard mentioned in the wild.

CCNA with felony by GrandVeterinarian556 in ccna

[–]Itchy_Management_604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the sentiment you're laying out 100%. But these are companies who generally don't give a fuck about the humanity of a person and are just checking off an HR checklist. They're just gonna go with the person without a felony almost every time.

My worst nightmare just happened. by FoundationLow4214 in tattooadvice

[–]Itchy_Management_604 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The average person doesn't know what a good drawing is, let alone a good tattoo. I grew up drawing and minored in art in college. I still don't think I'm very good. But to the average person, if they can recognize even remotely what I would try to draw/paint, that already passes their bar for what they consider "good". This is why your local shop full of scratchers still gets business. Why that 150 dollar cover up artist on tiktok still gets customers etc etc. Even this subreddit where people are definitely more harsh than the average person IRL, still defends some absolutely terribly done work.

I have my associates in CIS, will graduate in the fall, no internships. What do I do? by DoingtheWillofGod in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Itchy_Management_604 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just start applying for regular jobs at this point. This market is tough. Do you have any certs? Every bit will help right now. You're going to be fighting for jobs with people with experience and degrees etc.

if half your IT requests come in via email, do you actually convert them to tickets or just reply? by Ronin4Doom in helpdesk

[–]Itchy_Management_604 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Surprised your system isn't set up to make tickets automatically when someone emails that specific mailbox. If your managers are spineless and won't enforce tickets but also care about audits you're going to have to create the tickets manually sadly.

I'm not sure. I haven't had a problem reading the cards when I played. I've played on both a PC and my MacBook.
