How Do You Deal w/ User Induced Stress?

Posted by Cliff on from the 10-mississippi-9-mississippi-8-mississippi... dept.

Anonymous asks: "I've worked as a Network/System Administrator at a small company for two years now. It's my nature to remain calm and collected while trying to accommodate everyone, even when having a particularly stressful day. After two years though, I've recently found myself being stressed all the time and my calm, cool exterior is starting to show some cracks. How do Slashdot readers cope with the stress induced by a highly demanding job and being stalked by users asking for the same thing over and over (i.e. password resets, login problems, how do you...)?"

    Right, because where I work, they encourage us to look at homosexual porn, but not any other type.

    Dude you need to rethink what "highly demanding" is.

    You're right, putting homosexuals on the same level as cults and 'animal lovers' is really insulting to cultists and beastiality people.
