    The more I read here the more all these people come off as being super insecure and jealous that their skills are just to help people with real skills do basic computer stuff

      I’d say it has more to do with feeling under-appreciated for what they do to help workforce. To their colleagues they’re treated as little more than lowly keyboard jockeys until they’re needed for an IT problem, then they’re sent back to languish in the computer mines.

      At the end of the day it’s more a managerial problem, as they arent treated as an equal contributor to the group. Despite how much they contribute to overall efficiency and productivity.

        We’re almost always seen as a burden because we don’t directly generate revenue. That is, unless someone in the C-suite has an IT background.
