Aren’t IT people just janitors that tell you to turn it off and back on again?

I've been an actual janitor and a sysadmin... they're not dissimilar. You clean up other people's shit for a living.

So do I but with exception of the unfortunate cp that calls for bleaching eyes (and security) one is more sanitary than the other…

I hope you work with the public, sounds like a weird organization

Telco. Back then I was internal investigation. 25k employees. Bound to have some bad apples unfortunately. Honestly not weirder than elsewhere.

Any day you/your company could potentially be contacted by a 3 letter agency and/or the police to pull the data from a specific user for an investigation. "ESI request" is a term I hear on occasion.

It's a good idea to be on good terms with your employers lawyers.
