The phrase "Fuck you, pay me" comes to mind.
Cheapskates don't get top of the line security hardening. Pay more now or suffer a breach and pay contractors $1000/hr to fix your broken shit because you paid minimum wage for an administrator position and wanted them to do 5 jobs at once.
This guy gets it... and probably doesn't live in the US, cuz he knows the term "work 5 jobs at once".
Surely you meant the opposite? Working multiple jobs is a very USian thing. Now I'm curious, where are you from?
No no no no, I meant what I said. Working 5 jobs AT ONCE (at one postion, one place)... AT THE SAME TIME. I do hardware, software, scripting, installing, configuration, maintenance (hardware and software... the whole shbang, DB included), Linux, Windows, BSD, servers, workstations (over 800 of them, and it's me and 2 other guys under me!)... I even do freaking rig dusting! And ALL that, for 700 freaking euros a month! Not to mention pirating, that is also included cuz... they're too cheap to pay for licenses for... well, anything really.
So, excuse me if I don't care if the servers are up to date, mmmk.
From Macedonia BTW.
Yeah if a company relies on some underpaid person from Macedonia to do an entire IT departments worth of crap then they deserve to get hacked lmao
Told ya 🤷... you and others just have no idea how desparate things are around here, that's why most people blame me for not updating... I believe 90% of people around here that said that, if they were in my shoes, they'd do the same 🤷.
I don't blame you at all. I've worked at a place that have sucked my life force away like yours. The saying "no good deed goes unpunished" comes to mind. Patching servers and fixing infrastructure issues gets rewarded with getting blamed for any server or app issue going forward and then fixing said issues on top of your current workload. Getting out of that hell hole was one of the best decisions I've made.
Exactly! Couldn't have said it better myself.
Unfortunately, every IT job where I live is more or less like this. Sure, there are some that are not, but are not a whole lot better paid than what I currently make... and because of certain life decusions I've made, I currently can't move or work abroad. In 10+ years from now... maybe... we'll see... I hope so. So, basically, I'm more or less stuck here with this job. I could quit and find something else, but my current budget doesn't allow to go even for a month with no pay... so if I do, it'll have to be a quit today - hire tomorrow kind of a thing, which most companies around here don't do (they wanna squeeze as much free labour out of you as possible, so even if they don't go full pay for a month or two, that's a win in their book), so... again, not really an option currently.
