A Day in the Life - The IT Guy
25 09 2007Contrary to popular opinion IT Guy’s actually have lives outside of their digital worlds. It’s scary, I know, to think that the guy who fixes your PC at work also
manages to maintain a few hobbies on the side. Most IT Guys I know (and I know a lot) have hobbies that don’t involve computers. Personally I enjoy anything with a lot of horsepower. Which is probably why I have a 200 mph motorcycle, a Mustang on N20, and a turbo awd daily driver. Computers are something I typically avoid outside of work. My PC at home (yeah, I only have 1 at home.. I know you were thinking I had a server farm in my living room) is your run of the mill dell dimension. It’s not some home built super computer that causes half the block to go dark when I turn it on. Other IT Guy’s I know are into OffRoading their trucks, motorcycles, golf, and hiking. I will admit I know a few that play a game or two on their home computer too but the biggest geeks I know aren’t IT Guys!
I was definitely more of a geek before I became an IT guy. Now if it wasn’t for WoW who knows what I would be doing but it wouldn’t be on the computer, that’s for sure.
