Sure it was corny - but this is the video, followed by the lyrics, to the IT Job Seeker’s Song I wrote for my McDonald’s I/S Career Conference Keynote..
My apologies about the audio… Enjoy!
IT JOB SEEKER’S SONG LYRICS
The server crashed at 2pm as accounting ran financial’s
A blue screen buffer overflow the impact was substantial
I had hoped today, to have time to study for my certs
But the firewall is issuing exploit alerts
They wouldn’t sign for the disaster plan
I begged and pleaded when I spoke to them
But they just talked about a “fiscal year”
And now they want to get me out of here
I need a job where they respect my skill
Where every day is not a fire drill
Not asking for another dotcom craze
Well, maybe a little of that dotcom pay
But what I’d really like is gratitude
Some recognition for the things I do
A team where we all take a turn at bat
Where can I find an IT job like that
…
You deserve a break today, so submit your resume, to McDonalds
I’m Lovin’ IT!
