My coworkers called me crazy when I told them they'd rue the day they didn't build a fresh-format image for our lenovo laptops. Suck on it fuckers

Unfortunately I transcended regular user interaction into network engineering, and forgot to stop before I hit consulting where now its only 10% user interaction but that interaction is all C-Levels and everything must be explained in pie graphs and scatter plots and gantt charts.

Ask yourself which you're more interested in: Developing new skills at a new organization or honing existing skills in a stable work environment with long-term potential. Every job move involves risk, even more so when moving from a position you know you're secure in to something new in a different company. If you're risk adverse and don't like the inherent instability of a job change, stay where you are and look for alternative avenues of learning new skills if you're bored with what you do now. You may also find your new job will stale quickly while you put in your merit time before being allowed to move to a higher level roll or alternate career path. Personally I love switching jobs and learning new stuff. Very little hesitation to do so if the financials make sense. Some people not so much. Endpoint Management as a skill set isn't going to be obsolete anytime in the near future, so weigh that in too. E: As to what to ask, my own questions would revolve entirely around what I just outlined above. Every potential new employer gets asked "Why should I leave a stable long-term working environment to join your organization?". The ones worth working for have better answers than "Because we offer new opportunities!" Don't forget to factor in work environment and life balance as well. Are you willing to sacrifice your personal time to learn new things in a private sector job that will most definitely treat you worse than a public organization? Whats the dress code? Are you giving up Jeans and T-Shirts for slacks and a button down? Working hours too. I'd rather work 35 than 50 for the same salary.

Xanderkish posted:So I'm a Co-Op student for the Information Management section of a mid-sized company. My most recent manager moved to a new batch processing team within the company as part of a larger company reorganization, and brought me along with him. As one of my first tasks on this new team, he tasked me with improving the documentation for the team, as the higher-ups want to improve efficiency and the systems this team is working with have been around since 2004. The system is complicated enough, and the documentation spotty enough, that when I joined the company, I was told by other workers that it might take a person months to become adequately comfortable with the systems and procedures involved, and a lot of it is currently only learnt by word of mouth or by screwing up and asking someone else what the right thing to do is. Congratulations and welcome to the first experience in your potentially extremely lucrative consulting career. Learn to deal with this poo poo well and you too can charge people $$$$$ to go in and document / overhaul their dumpster rear end networks. (Ask me about doing this crap every single day!)

Im confused... how is it by the third time you've told an employee to document their poo poo and they've ignored you have you not started writing them up and making sure HR has disciplinary notices in their file for failure to complete tasks as assigned? Third write-up for failure to complete tasks as assigned is termination time. People will absolutely document their work as soon as you eject one of them from the building with your foot.

gently caress that. Fire them. If they won't document their work they aren't necessary anyway. Everyone can be replaced and proving you're willing to fire people for doing their jobs half assed is most definitely important if you want to succeed in management whatsoever. E: Just make sure you also treat employees who actually do their jobs well with respect and give them nice perks like flex time, extra PTO, etc. or whatever is in your power as a manager to do, and make sure they get solid performance reviews and raises.

But in the end, it doesn't mean anything and my true passion is elsewhere, not to mention the emotional and mental drain this field results in.
