Actually, there are very few people willing to work here for what they pay that have the ability to do what i do. most people are asking for 6 digits to be a network administrator, and they aren't going to find many willing to work for 25K/year.  so, untill i start demanding competative salary, i'm not going to have to worry about my job security.
so, i pretend to work, and they pretend to pay me. LOL
i think it's a pretty fair arrangement... although i should ask for a raise if they want me to take over yet another department.

Well, I wouldn't say that I know MORE than my boss. I know more about MY job than my boss, but it's my job to know. If my boss knew what I knew, he wouldn't need me, he'd be doing this stuff himself. And my boss is a smart guy, but his job requires him to have a diffrent skillset than mine. I couldn't do his job any better than he could do mine. *shrug*
but that's just my view on things.

You're being nice. I know both you and both of your bosses. Mike might be as smart as you, but I'd bet newyen against old american money you could do Dave's job while napping.

Well, in my opinion there's no humility about it. I have an awfull lot of skill when it comes to computers. I can recover things that other trained profesionals would throw up their hands in disguested defeat at. There are probibly lots of people that are better at working with computers than me, but I don't know any of thoes people, and I know a lot of people. But, inorder to do Dave's job, i'd have to fire and disipline people. i'd have to fill out paperwork all day long. i'd have to quantify everything I did, I would have to be super nice to total jerk customers, I'd have to deal with every assanine thing that any two employees could think up to fight about, I'd have to put in time at work without getting paid for it, I'd have to give up my hour lunch (in favor of eating a granola bar while answering phone calls) I would have to give raises to worthless employees just because they whine so much that it's the only way to get them to work, while letting the true tallent dwindle at minimum wage just because they didn't complaine enough. (an anti-social reward as it were)... and for all of that trouble, I actually wouldn't make that much more money than I do now. so, as far as working 500% more for only a 15% increase in salary,... He does a much better job of it than I ever would.  and there are some parts of his job that i could do easily, the parts of his job that are redundant with mine, finding technical information, telling customers what the solution to their problems could be, researching new vendors, troubleshooting new heavy machinery in the warehouse, but the places where we differ, is where most of the work takes place.

now i have worked for some real good bosses who cared bout the employees and have worked for ones that didnt give a shyt but in no way if one didnt deserve something good did they get it yes i think some know more then their bosses and being a boss is like being a mom or dad all stress i agree not worth time but you wouldnt have to give up much of what you were talkin bout just be a lil more organized then they r and learn your employees  :-\

a boss that cares about you is still a boss.
and the whole reason for being 'the boss' isn't to make your underlings like you, although it is possibile to do that as well, it's to make the company that pays you as profitable as possible.

*shrug* diffrent jobs. if they found us in reverse order, I think that the job descriptions would still be the same. our skills are in diffrent areas.
