Yeah nothing I hate more than uppers who barely know technology trusting people outside more than inside to make up for their deficiencies. And then implementing the practice when it is convenient to them not the rest of the workforce. Ever wonder why they cause the breach and programmers and IT folk get the claim. Mainly because they are given to much power in the workforce. I honestly can't wait till AI knocks out some of the random things people justify to keep themselves from having to learn on a daily basis. That magic excel sheet I want to blow up everyday and they feel the threat so they try to keep us oppressed in the workforce. A building pipe bursts "Ohh, that was just the weather we can deal with it". My email went down "Find the IT person and skewer them" for a cloud problem that is most of the time on a vendor a consultant recommended for hype. I don't feel business people really understand how to connect the dots and I hate the don't care make it work mentality.:mad::mad::mad: :((

Yes, it is very common even more now that I have been in the industry a long time. Mainly the younger people entering the industry don't understand some of the more cryptic tasks and may find it boring. Developers normally get pulled in because we organize data and understand layering and lets face it. We truly like to script and manage systems that way because we don't want to enter more information manually. :)
