Maaaay be QooC, but - - - if that's a significant part of your job, I don't envy you.

Job title is network engineer. Not system administrator or network administrator with a lot of server stuff and a little bit of networking to spice things up, but honest-to-God better-know-network-protocols-in-your-sleep engineer-of-last-resort network engineer. New sites come up and we have to engineer them. We lease 12 strands of dark fiber that are ours to use alone and modify as we please. It's in a ring around the Portland metro area, which is good . . . back in December (?) a power line came down and sparked a fire, melting through the fiber. We stayed up and running, albeit with our monitoring screaming about the north side of said ring. Local TV stations weren't so lucky; there went off the air because they only use the north half so no redundancy.
But I digress. I do routing. I do QoS. I do MPLS. I do spanning tree. The new CEE/DCB standards (less important to us because we're getting away from Fiber Channel). Load balancing. Firewalls. If I'm on call I'm responsible for it all. And unless it's a hardware failure or software bug, I better be able to fix it. So I'm frequently manipulating network gear or looking at stats or reading how a new feature works. And I enjoy (just about) every minute of it. But I still enjoy programming on the side for my own projects.

You grease the intertubes. For that, sir, I take off my hat a sign of goodwill, for you make this all possible.

Why buy the dhromed when you can get the colon for free?
I see someone's undercutting me right under my ass.

What the.. who needs an entire screen dedicated to email?
I have seen several people who - when they double-click an email to open it - immediately maximise that window, so we're looking at half an inch of content that tops a few square acres of white. It's called "Windows", not "Window".
Aha! So that's the target audience for Window 8.
But at least it has multiple taskbars.
