What work do you do IRL?

Hi,

I'm really curious what job all of our forumers do for a living.
I will start off myself:
I'm currently working as a civil engineer/cad designer, where my main activities are making drawings of the ground, road- and water construction and the preparation of contracts

Hope that this is understandable enough...

Who said you could take a break? Back to the coal mines, now!

jk pls no ban

I do IT Support for a shed company. Very exciting stuff.

I basically say "Have you tried restarting <x>?"
"...No"
"Ok restart <x> and give me a call back", and then never actually get a call back because that fixed the problem and they can't be bothered to call back, even though we still have the ticket open and we're awaiting a reply.

Ohhh I've been called by Uber support before. I left a comment saying "A++ guy drives so fast we arrived in half the expected tine" and I got a call saying "We apologize for the speed our driver was going that should not be happening. Here is $5 Uber credit". And I was like "Are you kidding? Pay that guy extra."

AlwaysSnipin
