Day 21 – Favourite thing & worst things about working in IT?

I really like communicating with people, sharing what I know, and helping others solve problems.  Thats what I like to do.

When a user has a problem, and I can help show them an easier way, or if I can fix something that is not working right so they can get on and do their job, it makes both of us happy, and that is cool.

I don’t like debugging hardware and device drivers.  That is a pain, and a waste of everyone’s time.  That is what hardware leases are for.  If it is not easy to solve, trade it in for one that works.
