  • I’m not disagreeing with you, just saying managers tend to error in the direction of understaffing or under resourcing their technical staff.

    I used to work at a place where a non IT manager with a high billing rate to clients had to setup computers and fix servers because the company was too cheap to hire an IT person in house - even though the freed up billable time would probably more than pay for an additional employee.

    If you need an IT guy to come and press a button there, the staff at least need like a tech savvy intern or staffer who can follow directions. Because lets get real, the people that need that help will need more help.



  • If you need this level of service you definitely need to hire somebody who can manage to at least follow technical directions at site.

    I’ve worked at places where the only people who can follow technical directions don’t have access to the server. Its very much managers not wanting to pay a person on site to manage critical infrastructure.
