Slick, I was kidding, honest.

?

But not about how to configure the damned thing.

?

I switch it on. The fan runs, the lights blink and it sits there looking balefully at me.

?

I tried sacrificing a chicken, but it gives me the impression that it hungers for

something richer, like the souls of the damned.

?

I wonder if it wants to be paired up with the bloody Cisco Integrated Services Router

that it arrived with.

?

I really, REALLY don't feel up to reading fracking Cisco manuals right now. Maybe

while the college is on summer break. Or maybe I can find someone who speaks

parseltongue to do the job for me.

You forgot that the short-sighted company that just let go of their IT
staff then realizes that they DO need to pay for people to maintain
those workstations or laptops they issued everyone. That even the
extended warranty doesn't cover software issues and that the
infrastructure in the building can still fail with users who can't track
down a cable that is loose or disconnected, and are often prohibited by
company Policy from even attempting to diagnose things themselves.

Then of course they want to hire somebody with a master's in computer
science with 2-5 years experience that knows all their specialized
programs inside and out and pay them $25,000 a year to maintain things,
and complain about a "labor shortage" when they can't find any
candidates that are a perfect match, all say they need to learn one or
two of their programs, or just graduated and have no "business
experience", only experience maintaining computers for friends and
family, or only have an associates degree, etc.
It's not like they can't learn and be trained on the more highly
specialized programs, no they need somebody that can "hit the ground
running" with no training time.
