[QUOTE="Craiger or Keystones, post: 136175"] Dude, I am glad you have skills -- you would be that proverbial needle in the haystack. I left UPS. I thought I had skills. I had to learn a great deal. What you have is UPS technology skills -- which relate to very little in an industry standard technology company. About half the people I work with now are 55+ year old women. I cannot think of a single one that wouldn't smoke 95% of the UPS technicians I met over the years. It isn't for a lack of wanting/trying on the UPS tech's part. It is just the nature of UPS -- they don't want skilled workers. UPS technicians are a hybrid. You don't support, at an expert level, anything that directly relates to non-UPS technology. Think of it, how many of you know SMS, DNS, DHCP, AD, Wireless, WIDS, IOS, etc. I know you may have heard the terms, and even maybe seen the acroynms on a server or in a UPS technical manual. But, how many of you know what they are and can support them. The ugly truth is that virtually no-one can. It is not your fault, though. It doesn't mean you are stupid. UPS doesn't want you to know. In my experience, only the Mahwah guys ever impressed me. The rest of the Helpdesks sucked. You guys shouldn't be fighting back and forth like this. You are fighting over who's captain of the retarded Computer Club. You are all winners in my book!!! Now line up for your participation trophy. [/QUOTE]
