Dumb article but note the phrasing from the HR person:
“In certain countries there was huge lockdown, and so we would have our own employees choose to sleep in the data center because they were worried they’d get stuck at a roadblock, trying to go home.”
They never found out lol. Would do it again if I could, just need to find similar gigs. Most stressful it ever got was restarting some servers/DBMS software and doing basic windows stuff. Except for the time I had to phone someone at 2am to solve a complicated problem lol.
What job title did you have, more or less? I'm looking to switch from one bullshit job to another soon and it would be nice to get IT experience on my resume.
It wasn't an IT job in that way, it was more like "you're the kid that knows what a computer is, we pay you just above minimum wage to watch the servers at night. If anything goes seriously wrong phone the actual sysadmin" kind of thing. I guess job title would be entry level server technician/support?
