Quality of life

Information technology people evidently can have plenty of it.

A job opening listed on the city web site is for a “senior VoIP telecom administrator”.  The job pays up to $115,644 per year in salary.  Benefits are extra.

Remember that new phone system that they wanted just for the tenth floor (mayor and council and city manager)?  You know, the one that they have been adding on to for many other city departments in the interest of simplicity and compatibility.  That’s the one that they have been adding to through buy boards so that none of the competitors have a chance.  Give them an inch and they take a yard was about this.

Well now it seems that the new system takes some really expensive people to make it work.

Good grief, this is more than an assistant fire chief or police commander makes.

If the system requires this level of support why did we buy it when the competitive market offers much simpler solutions?

Could it be the quality of some salesman’s life?

We deserve better
