QuoteYou think your job is bad? You ain't seen nothing until you've had to pick moldy food and cockroaches out of a dead PC or been asked to find out what your coworkers have been up to online when they were supposedly working. You definitely haven't earned your IT creds until you've stood in two feet of water holding a plugged-in server while trying not to get electrocuted, found yourself inside a sniper's crosshairs while you're attempting to install a communications link, or had to worry about bombs going off while you're futzing with network protocols.
