Re: To balance the scales...

>Because IT is just about coding and apps right?

IT covers much more than simply coding:

There is arguing with layers of management about how a backup isn't a waste of money

There is arguing with suppliers about "yes actually we feel that a CPU, memory, disk and a PSU SHOULD be included with a server quote"

There is arguing with HR that you should be allowed to execute a few users every now and again - "Pour Encouragez Les Autres"

And there is the vital technical skills of turning it off and on again / hitting it / wiggling cables / shuffling paper / hitting it (again)
