There might not be such a thing as the perfect career. No matter which path you choose, it can be one full of ups and downs and loads of situations testing your patience.
However, the ultimate patience-test-of-a-career is most likely working in IT. Whether it’s devices the specialists have to deal with, humans who are no longer in control of theirs (it’s probable that either side is equally annoyed by the question—”have you tried turning it off and on again?”), or other struggles, it all can be quite challenging to manage.
Luckily, representatives of the field can find solace in their fellow IT professionals and online communities, such as the Facebook group ‘IT Humor and Memes’. It provides a much needed giggle for the IT people out there, who are likely to find the posts to be quite relatable. Scroll down to find some of them on the list below and click here for our previous piece about the group. Below, you will also find some thoughts from the group’s founder, Trevor Paquette, which he shared during a recent interview with Bored Panda.
Trevor Paquette said that a random message of appreciation is one of the things he loves most about managing the group. “Every once in a while, we get an out-of-the-blue ‘thanks for making my day go by’ message. Those mean a lot to me and the entire team of moderators.”
“That, and the fact that many of the items posted make me laugh. It helps my day go a little easier as well,” he added.
