So I'm looking at this job, which on the surface looks like something I could enjoy doing -- admin stuff in an IT environment, presumably surrounded by geeks or at least pseudo-geeks. Except then I see this in the "Key Responsabilities" bit:

Influencing managers and staff, over whom you have no authority

... That just somehow strikes me as a red flag. o_O

Just pick up a whip-- CRACK!

But! No authority! Which to me sounds like "You're supposed to make people behave, but we're giving you no way to MAKE them behave," and I've put up with quite enough of that bullshit. :/

Is work supposed to be hell?

You tell me, love.

And seriously, I actually like doing tech support, it's the outsourcing part of it that's making me twitch and rant, mostly. That, and bullshit policies. :/
