I have a pretty lax job revolving around Middleware/IT at a very well-known, multinational bank. It's pretty great because most of the time I get to chill, churn out services/changes on a timely basis, and manage myself--to the point that I get to work from home virtually whenever I want.Â
It sucks when I have to man company-wide updates. Recently, I was in charge of a certificate update to our production servers and spent a month or so talking to various vendors/clients to get them all ready for the date. If something went wrong, then that entire side of the bank would be down and it'd have been my fault D=
So it's not stressful until it is. And then it's very, very stressful. But the pay doesn't suck and I can chill.
