Task 2
I’m an IT Technician specialized in networking and system administration and I have been in this
position for more than three years now, I have a lot obstacles concerning my tasks , starting by the
fact that I’m responsible for resolving the issues of any computer or server in my company even
problems that are not in my field . In addition there is my boss who really have problems in task
delegation between me and my co-workers, he mostly give me all the tasks and also the hard parts of
the projects and that puts me in under pressure sometimes, another point is the working time it is
from eight to five and you are not allowed to even ask to work remotely despite that ninety percent
of the job could be done from home.

The Good part of my job is that I’m always in a challenge, a challenge to learn new things and
practice them at the same time, it also helped me a lot in time management and the kind of pressure
that I’m always in helped to learn how to organize and prioritize my tasks in a way that my work is
always done before deadlines, I’m also very comfortable with my colleagues and we have that kind of
communication that make me feel like they are family more than co-workers.
