&gt; &gt; My interpretation of the SAGE code of ethics is the
&gt; &gt; following: I do not read people's emails, even tho it is
&gt; &gt; within my power.  I do not spy on people, even tho it is
&gt; &gt; within my power and in many cases may prove their misdeeds.
&gt; &gt; I do not collect data on people's misdeeds even tho these
&gt; &gt; people may be harming me on the job.  I do not make these
&gt; &gt; decisions.  I just run the server.
&gt;
&gt;
&gt; Amen. As usual, Jenn is spot on. Dear God we need more like her in this
&gt; profession! Folks, regardless of how we've been conditioned by our peers and
&gt; our own egos to feel, we are barely one step up from the position of
&gt; Janitor. We are not any more important in the grand scheme of things than
&gt; the Maytag man. It's just that our appliance is buggy, unreliable, requires
&gt; trained operators most of the time, and for some strange reason...people
&gt; accept this as normal and agree to keep us on site. The minute you hop into
&gt; the saddle of the tall horse, you set yourself up for a rough ride. Most
&gt; companies have no use for uppity janitors. An appliance repair man that
&gt; comes into a home, spots a dime bag on the coffee table and dials 911 is not
&gt; likely to stay in business long. The same rules apply to us.
&gt;
&gt; Had I been in charge of the department mentioned, both the sysadmin and his
&gt; boss would have been terminated. One for wasting time and money, the other
&gt; for being a backstabbing, uppity, overly ambitious, jerk off. Cause we all
&gt; know that he probably was bucking for his boss' job.

I have to agree with this.  No one cares about you unless the seat is dirty.  I went back
and looked at Blake's website. It would be easy for ALDOT to fire him for other reasons.
A consultant came in after he was fired and found problems in setups of software.


Also, we have to keep in mind.  GA is a right to hire state.  I don't know about AL.  But
here you can be asked to leave at anytime.
