1. Greet my manager and co-workers.
2. Grab a drink while checking email and voicemail.
3. Run call center reports for the previous day and track down any problems back to the mass between the keyboard and chair.
4. Check for errors on callpilot, symposium, and the PBX.
5. Read slashdot etc...
6. Then sit around waiting for something to go wrong.

Not always in that order.

Submission + - The First Thing IT Managers Do in the Morning?

An anonymous reader writes: When I was a wee-little IT Manager, I interviewed for a IT management position at an online CRM provider in San Francisco, a job I certainly was qualified for, at least on paper. One of the interviewer's questions was "What is the first thing you do when you get to work in the morning." I thought saying "Read Slashdot" wouldn't be what he was looking for — so I made up something, I'm sure, equally lame. Needless to say, I didn't get the job. But the question has stuck with me over the years. What do real IT and MIS managers do when they walk in to the office in the morning? What web sites or tools do they look at or use the first thing? Tell me. And remember, this is for posterity, so be honest.
