An IT guy who can't perform under pressure is next to useless, even if he's smart.
I have to admit, I don't like to work under pressure. What sort of situations would you consider to be a "pressure" generating duty?
I can't imagine working like that. Pressure is a daily occurrence where I work, and always has been. Sometimes it is excessive, usually due to senior management going too long without adapting to new realities. Some days I have multiple "critical" systems go down at the same time. Some days everything works. The first is becomming more common as I keep getting more responsibilities, I can't recall the second type lately.
If I had no pressure I wouldn't know what to work on. The days would drag by. Ahhh, the horror!
