Should I Hate My Job? New Poll Says Yes

In a recent poll about most hated jobs, Director of Information Technology topped the list. That’s right, IT Directors hate their jobs more than anyone else. More than garbage collectors, executioners, telemarketers, investment bankers, S&P employees, elected politicians, unelected politicians, network executives, and network executive assistants.

As someone who has almost this exact job title (minus the word “Information”), I must say that I completely understand how these poor souls feel. I mean, so what if I get to work in a nice office all day, with people much smarter than I but nice enough to put up with my “opinions”, for a company that makes a real difference in people’s lives, helping build awesome applications using really cool technology…

Ok, I sort of lost my train of thought. Where was I? Oh right, I was explaining how I understand these poor technology directors who hate their jobs. I mean, take away the pay and benefits, awesome people, cool technology, industry leading products, dominant market leader of a company and what’s left? Great culture, meaningful work, beautiful office space, great personal relationships…

What was I talking about again? Ah yes, the job-hating technology directors. You poor bastards, I get you, I really do. Being a leader in technology is a hard and thankless job. Ignoring for a second the great people, projects, products, technologies, relationships, office space, perks, pay, benefits, company, culture…

Wow, I really need to focus here. Right, being a technology director sucks. It really does. Trust me.
