    Well, a surgeon might be OpOps, but as a one man band, I'm just MeOps.

    Or if you are in the business of fighting turtles, you might be BeebOps :suss: EDIT: I didn't mean to reply to you Griff, but I can't be bothered to delete it.

      We have DevOps, SysOps, SecOps. Even NoOps (that's me at 8pm staring a the bottom of an empty glass). I was joking that I bet a few of you are actually SalesOps: IT Professionals who have to get on sales calls to help the sales team explain to customers what the product is, what it does, why it's useful and why they, Mr or Mrs Attractive and Intelligent Customer, really, really need it in their lives. You probably then go and have a half hour shower and scrub hard. Except SalesOps is really a thing and now my day is just a bit sadder. So what Ops are you? Bonus points for the most obscure and/or embarrassing.

        Special Ops.

            I'd happily volunteer for GiveEmTheChOps, but us older, experienced-in-everything guys are more likely to be associated with CheOps.

                      If you ever work for a digital agency you'll probably be practicing MiracleOps. It's when non-technical salespeople visit the client to try and secure the work, and in order to do so say "yes" to everything, from scope to timescales and budget. Only when the contract is signed and sealed do they hand the work off to you. "You know Facebook, right? Well the client wants a site like that. They have a £100,000 budget and they want it live next month."

                                      :thumbsup: And I thought I had it rough! At least I don't have to deal with hardware or international concerns! Keep up the good work! :)

                                        We have DevOps, SysOps, SecOps. Even NoOps (that's me at 8pm staring a the bottom of an empty glass). I was joking that I bet a few of you are actually SalesOps: IT Professionals who have to get on sales calls to help the sales team explain to customers what the product is, what it does, why it's useful and why they, Mr or Mrs Attractive and Intelligent Customer, really, really need it in their lives. You probably then go and have a half hour shower and scrub hard. Except SalesOps is really a thing and now my day is just a bit sadder. So what Ops are you? Bonus points for the most obscure and/or embarrassing.
