I'm helping my mom buy a house in the Chesapeake right now actually.

But that's because I love her and she supported me raised me and never asked for a dime.

I think Mist Mist just likes being treated like shit by other women. She gets off posting about it in this forum as well.

I bet her "mom" isn't even her real mom and just some old dominatrix.

Financial domination - Wikipedia
I wish. That sounds way better.

Well, I was told negotiating wasn't even an option.

Were you told that in THIS room?

I've decided that when I'm officially done with this job I'm going to start livestreaming our NOC afterhours.

People making dick jokes while our customers' servers are literally on fire has got to be funnier than half of Twitch.

a_skeleton_02 could probably land a job as your boss in a few hours if that's what's needed, he's a go getter

While I agree that its not an order of magnitude more bullshit than the bullshit at any other job, the amount of bullshit happening in real-time without appropriate management, tools, processes or manpower to handle what's been sold to the customer is sometimes staggering, while sales people try to get you fired for not meeting their absolute nonsense custom SLAs they've sold to 6000 completely different customers.

"Oh, I'm sorry you sold a 30 minute SLA, with penalties, for voicemail password resets for some dinky law office with a 14.4 modem that only works one Tuesday every other month as their only remote access method, I'm too busy chartering a helicopter and finding a sub willing to ride it to fix a microwave dish because some other asshole sold a 4 hour SLA on system outages on an island in fucking Alaska."

You missed my point. It's not the dealing with people that are a pain in the ass, that's not unique, its the fact that you're dealing with people who are a pain in the ass while nobody is actually in charge for 15 hours a day every weekday and 48 hours on the weekend for what's supposed to be a 24x7 global telecoms/IT managed services provider with a ~billion dollar annual revenue, and yet it's being run like third shift at the local supermarket, only with far less management.
