Photo Woes: Yet Another Interviewee
An e-mail exchange with an IT manager on whom I’m writing an article:
me: Thanks for the answers. Could I get a high-res shot of you to accompany the writeup?
him: Do you mean a photo?
Yes, it is fairly ironic that he is in IT. More ironic is the teeny-tiny 64kb picture I received, shortly after. Even more ironic is its unusable PDF format.
Yes, I know. I feel like I work with people like that too, sometimes.
Speechless…. absolutely speechless. Don’t we just feel good about ourselves?

Lol, I’ve heard a few IT manager stories like this from my wife. But this is a classic example. :)
Titles don’t reflect much these days do they?
david lynch plays with himself too much!
Its very common among IT Managers.
They manage the IT staff, not IT stuff.
I’m also in IT line too. My manager recently asked me what is a blog. I don’t know how to explain to him without making him look dumb.
DK> That makes sense, though I wouldn’t expect that from anyone remotely acquainted with tech. He doesn’t have to be a tech whiz but really…Wow. (Then again, I get the point about him being a people manager and little else…)
