Reply to comment by LaJolla86 in Conservative News Corp. empire says hackers were inside its network for 2 years by DoremusJessup

I ran into an old coworker who was now manager of the NOC a couple years back and he offered me my old Tier 3 gig back ( I would’ve failed, been out for 5 years and all certs had lapsed) with a raise and I turned him down so fast it wasn’t funny.

I was the de facto on duty Incident Manager, they wouldn’t allow me to move into that role full time (with a 6 figure raise btw) so yeah. You have to really like abuse or the NOC to deal with it.

I occasionally think to myself maybe I’d like to go back to IT then I realize no matter how bad my life gets, it’s bette than working in IT.

I’ve been working in NOC’s for years but only in telecom and although it’s stress full I fucking love the NOC 4 day work week and everyone leaves you alone if nothing is broken.
