They do have the same dress code.

Only most of us see business casual and think "Button down, slacks, maybe a blazer. Polo on fridays, maybe."

They see business casual and go "geometric pattern short sleeve button down, black pants, no belt, black comfort shoes with or without velcro"

IT sounds interesting but with a CS degree in the next year ill probably just start out as a Dev..Anyone know perks of working IT vs. Software Development? It seems IT guys get a more laid back schedule for one...Pay? Hours worked? I had a friend of my dad's tell me he used to be a programmer and hated it..but..grain of salt

I work in IT.

-I mostly wear Nike pants and tshirts, sometimes coveralls. I'm not in a traditional office environment though (oilfield), and everyone else here pretty much dresses the same.
-no neckbeard, I'm usually clean shaven.
-If everything is up and running, I've done my job.
-if your computer is freezing up... its your fault
-i could find out what everyone is doing, but honestly after 12 years of doing this I don't care anymore. I've seen it all.

I wish I could wear what I want.

An IT person that never seems to be doing shite is a sign of a solid network. It's the IT guy always having to put out fires that should raise flags. Even when it seems like we're not doing shite, we usually are more busy than anyone can imagine.

I work in IT and there is indeed a lot of downtime but the job can also be super stressful especially in my case working for a financial institution

No they don't. Good IT folks don't snoop and they don't care what you are doing. They are confident in their ability to keep you from wrecking the place and don't need to spy on you nor is it considered to be ethical by any decent IT staff that I've ever encountered (unless you're getting flagged by network monitors or reasonable cause of suspicion is raised.)

Linen pants and shirts in the Summer... I don't think I look like a hobo though. No neck beard.

As a programmer, I have nothing to do with your computer freezing up. Quit surfing gay, midget porn and your sys will probably work correctly.

Quit downloading porn and thinking that it's a good idea to go to "totallylegitwomenwhowilldateyou.com". They're not helping you because their tired of your pathetic, whiny self breaking everything.
