So how many of you work within an I.T. field? I'm sure a lot of you do. My job title is:
I.T. Services Specialist.
Basically, im a computer tech.
I work with hardware and software just like a lot of you do. I work in a hospital, so there's done of applications we use and tons of hardware. I'm always busy and usually have a big que of work. Mixed within my normal job, I'm unfortunately a HELP DESK backup. Which means, i answers phone calls from user's who are having problems.
When someone is sick or on vacation, I usually fill in. This past week, I've been here everyday, all day. And its really... stressful. For one, i have no tolerance for people cant follow simple directions. I can be nice, but if you cant be semi-smart or knowledgeable, and you work at a hospital as a nurse or even a doctor, you need to find a different occupation.
Second, this is not my job, my boss is lucky i have this trait, or the help desk would be screwed.
Someone is sick or calls in, at least once a week, so almost every week, im here taking these god damn calls.
With it being the x-mas time of year, guess what plays on the radio that sits 1 foot from me.... x-mas music.
Can you imagine taking calls from idiots all day, and then also having to listen to x-mas music... for 8 hours everyday?
This is without a doubt, the most stressful week I've worked within the passed 2 years.
I almost called in sick myself, cause I do not want to be here. I hate it that much.
I'll be much happier when the x-mas holidays are over and I can get back to my normal job. But then again.... these help desk workers really love their pto.... i fuc*ing hate this place.
