According to this quiz (highly scientific, you know)(hat tip Neil), I'm the {que the scary music} IT Manager:
If someone doesn't know UNIX, you laugh at them. If they lose their password, you laugh at them. If they visit a website using Microsoft Internet Explorer and their computer succumbs to an Internet worm, you laugh.
You know, there is a small evil part of me where this is true. Especially the Internet Explorer part. Firefox rules!
Update: Fixed the link and added the hat tip.

Congratulations, fool! You're the incompetent egotist.
Every office has one. You stride in on your first day with no useful skills, an inane smile on your face, and plans for a variety of team-building exercises, meetings, extra-curricular activities and staff days out, all designed to win you favour with the boss.
The problem is, everyone else hates you. You're loud, you're arrogant, you're dumber than management, and you insist on wearing really loud shirts to make yourself seem interesting. Even the IT manager is more socially aware - and the depressing thing is, you'll probably run the company in ten years.
If you don't get a pickaxe through your head first.
I disagree'd too....I just picked out the part that *did* apply. :) Like I said, highly scientific. :D
Posted by: Anna at June 29, 2004 02:46 PMThat's ok, this doesn't really fit me either (except maybe the 2nd half of the last paragraph).:
"Whaddup, lil Janitor. I see you have a chip on your shoulder the size of Montana.
It's not enough that you have to watch those overpaid idiots go about their inane business every day on twice your salary, as you relentlessly clean up after them. It's not enough that they refuse to say more than a quick "hi" to you day after day, and never invite you on the office outings or give you so much as a Christmas card. But the things they leave in the toilet, on their chairs, across their keyboards and clinging to the outsides of their wastebaskets like snot to a child ...
... it's enough to make you shudder with grief and fury.
And shudder with grief and fury you do, behind their backs, in corridors and broom closets. Some day, you'll get your own back. But you're not going to play their underhanded games; you're not going to stoop to their stuffy little level. You're going to take the moral upper hand and screw them over one day so bad that they won't know what hit them. And until then?
Until then you wait."
