I work in IT and we have truly self steering teams without formal hierarchy. Not everyone is used to it and IT people can be interesting characters, so it’s quite a process to get the team to perform well.
well, I’m still in the training process, but I’ll be drawing blood. I think that’s interesting as hell!
Sounds cool but I draw like a preschooler.
Professional vampire. Noice
Seeing how the banking industry runs on the inside. I work in ATM rigging. Banks operate in a state of complete chaos if you were wondering. I’ve never seen an industry where money wasted/lost just doesnt matter to them. Join a credit union. Seriously.
The online training videos at my workplace use the same artificial lady voice as the tutorial lady voice in the game Hypnospace Outlaw.
For people at large, nothing. I’m a data engineer. Eyes immediately gloss over when I tell them. I do have a tool that is a one stop shop potential violation of PII rules.
What’s PII?
Personally identifying information.
That i get to travel Australia to all these remote places.
And i get to go on container ships sometimes and always get lost
My efforts reduce time spent in incidents for on call engineers. I actively allow them to work less, and they usually fight me on it, hahaha.
I’m an automation engineer working for a large cloud operator.
I’m a software engineer on a team that is known around the org to have the worst on-call load out of anyone else. You are definitely underappreciated if your work saves them lots of time!
I design lots of things that go to space
From an outsider’s perspective it would be the places that I work - which I am not going to reveal in any detail to avoid doxing myself, but include nationally and internationally important historical and archaeological sites.
From my perspective, although they are certainly interesting and I love working at them, it doesn’t play a particularly prominent role in what I do day-to-day, so it would be the wide range of problem solving involved: I lead a team dealing with maintenance, compliance and health & safety for a national charity.
I film blind people for a living. Hearing their stories is always so inspiring.
I also film puppies, so could be worse!
I work for a bank, so it’s interesting meeting all kinda of people and understanding how they do their banking and what they do with their money
I get to play with pills
I’m a software dev, but I also do all the design architecture and infrastructure work. I like that there are new problems to aolve every day so it doesnt get so boring.
Do I need one or two of my ADD pills to make this shit bearable
I get to pet a lot of dogs
