And I thought SalesOps was a joke

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.

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."

Apparently Microsoft now has IconOps It's time for RetOps or at least VacOps (not vacuum, unless that's your thing, but vacation--you know that mystical time when you have leisure time away from work for more than a weekend.)

After several operations and a few weeks in the hospital I don't really feel needy.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

First it was industrial machines with a ton of extremely specialized hardware (X-ray generators, X-ray detectors, custom made boards and so on), in the international market subjected both to radioprotection laws and food&beverage treatment laws (when not pharmaceutical). Now it is ECU diagnostic tools for a large car manifacturer, with a ton of extremely specialized hardware whose each unit costs about as much as one of the machines I developed and manifactured in the previous job. All this in an international market with all the laws for safety and vehicles safety. I managed to get rid of VB6, I acquired a sh*tty Open Source GUI Toolit developed single handedly by a dutch who, I have reasons to believe, enjoyed the freedom in recreational drugs use of the Netherlands a bit too much. Pros: the pay is much better. Cons: the work environment managed to burn me out in 2 months, instead of the 5 years and a half that the old workplace took to get me at the same burn-out point.

Wow, you may be just the guy to answer a question I have. My truck has a history of hard starting when the temperature drops below about 50F and it hasn't been started in a day or so. It turns over briskly, so not a battery issue. I always hesitate for several seconds on a cold start to give the fuel pump time to pressurize. A recent google search led me to try using a hair dryer to warm the ECU for a couple of minutes. I didn't believe it until I tried it...three times now...wouldn't start, break out the hair dryer for a few minutes and it starts right up. My guess is I need a new ECU.
