A community for comic lovers who just want to get away from politics and gloom and doom.
- Rule 1 - Be civil.
- Rule 2 - Don't be uncivil.
Posting guidelines:
- No political comics. This generally includes anything referencing whatever bullshit Trump is up to, but also includes the megacorps. Essentially if the comic is about how the world today sucks, it doesn't belong here.
- Where possible, tag the title with [comic name]. This refers to the name of the artist or overall comic, not the title of the specific strip.
- Tag NSFW / NSFL / AI content accordingly.

The most important skill you need to work in IT is communication.
Communication skills and text interpretation. But that excludes so many people, including a good half of IT support personnel.
Civility, please
Honestly you can get by even without that so long as you can read. Everyone knows at least one IT guy that doesn't talk to anyone, just emerges from his server closet/dungeon to solve your problem and disappear silently back into the darkness like some breed of Batman.
It's me. I'm the guy. Been working remotely since COVID, haven't been to the office in at least 2 years and skip all office parties/gatherings.
