I’m a support engineer for dental software. So difficult issues won’t get immediate resolutions, and instead development will actually have to fix things because offices will be crying at them for a fix instead of at me.

But the world won’t end.

    Production planner here. Eventually you will notice that things are done inefficiently, not in a sensible order or timely manner. It’s gonna be really annoying but the world won’t collapse.

    within a few hours. water and wastewater don’t treat themselves. water would stop coning out of taps. wastewater would back up into people’s homes and without a way to deal with it the environment would go to shit.

    damn this makes me feel like i might be doing something important. i should be paid more

    I’m a sysadmin. So like two days tops before absolutely everything stops working, and we resort to loin cloths and spears.

    You’ll all be fighting in the streets for food by the end of next week. Logistics literally moves the world. 🚚

      Yup. I’m a warehouse manager. The logistics/ transportation/ warehousing industry is already stretched disturbingly thin. If we take away the people who run the places, the world will grind to a halt.

    I’m an apartment building superintendent, meaning I live in the same building that I manage.

    Whether it’s a water leak, fire alarm, someone having a medical crisis, or something else, I’m usually called for an emergency of one kind or another at least once every 48 hours. In theory, someone could die if paramedics are delayed by a locked door or the fire department doesn’t know which units have elderly/disabled people who need evacuation assistance.
