People working in IT seem to have anecdotes for days. In one hilarious animated viral YouTube video, a guybemoanshis day job, saying that “working entry-level IT is maybe the most soul-crushing, put-your-brain-into-a-blender thing you can do.” He goes on to complain that everyone expects him to be some “Computer Jesus”.Alex Meyers then relays some of his worst moments, which drove him absolutely nuts, but gave us a good chuckle.
