Somehow it's missing the clean cut Indian developer guy, the emo developer, the script kiddie, the Linux fan, the windows fan, the IBM frat boy, the open BSD lunatics and the one guy who loves trains too much

Emo developer - top left

Script kiddy - top left

Linux fan - top left

Guy who loves trains too much - bottom right

Got a coworker on my team who is type 4. He's the glue that holds the team together, nobody knows anywhere as much as he does.

If he ever leaves, the whole team is screwed and the project is dead in the water.

Not 100% sure I nailed it but the 4 pics made me think PC meme.

I knew I should've swapped the top left and bottom right, but as you say, it's not clear without nuance.

Number 1 is number 3 when online.

Number 2 is number 4 when at the convention.

There are 2 types of IT guys.

[-] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

I think you mean stages*

There are 4 stages of IT guy

[-] python@programming.dev 85 points 4 days ago

They're all the same person

[-] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 48 points 4 days ago

But, like, are there types of IT women? Asking cause I am one and don't know any tropes for us lol

[-] Abnorc@lemm.ee 42 points 4 days ago

Go forth and forge your own destiny, free of stereotypes. Or just be Alex from YIIK idk.

[-] Glitch@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 4 days ago

Every IT woman I've worked with kicks ass and is really cool, doesn't realize how cool and inspiring they are. Until management, then I have no idea how they got there, they can't seem to use a computer let alone assist with IT related decision making.

This image is frighteningly accurate. The IT guy at my current job is top left. The IT guy at my last job was top right. My friend from my discord server who works in IT has said for years that everyone who works in IT is either a neckbeard, a femboy, or a furry. He's a furry.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 31 points 4 days ago

What's the stereotype with top right?

Asking because if I had to lump myself somewhere, it's that one.

But if it sucks... I guess I'll go wear a sailor uniform.

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

The "lumberjack" style / hipster.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 11 points 4 days ago

Ew... Gross.

I'll wear the femboi outfit.

Yeah thanks Gilfoyle!

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 66 points 4 days ago

The bottom 2 seem accurate. Source: I'm an IT person

[-] ms_lane@lemmy.world 57 points 4 days ago

The bottom two are just the top two at home.

Doesn't have the guy who seems to always be asleep at the desk but is also somehow the most efficient IT worker.

[-] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 41 points 4 days ago

Why do you think they have time to sleep?

We have two IT guys, one of them is three of these and the other is the fourth. The guy who is all three is actually the anime girl on VR Chat in his spare time :)

Am the numero 4 / bottom right (except too poor for fursuit yet). Sometimes pretend to be a 2. Have two colleagues who work IT at a municipal service. The first is a 1 who pretends to be a 3 and the second is a 3 who pretends to be a 1. Even I find myself at a loss at them sometimes.

[-] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 37 points 4 days ago

Why are you showing us the same person 4 times?

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

I guess I'm top left. If it has to be that three. I'm pretty sure whoever came up with that needs to show us where IT touched them on the Anatomically Neutral doll.

The Inquisition has no power over the Adeptus Mechanicus, meat sack!

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Why are none of them Noel Fielding?

noel isn't actually an IT guy, he's the random guy that broke into your building but is too chill to be kicked out.

Also he's kinda funny.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago

This is a weird political compass

Do I have to choose one of this?

You can't be everything at same time???

[-] zyratoxx@lemm.ee 14 points 4 days ago
[-] Oka@sopuli.xyz 7 points 4 days ago

I'm not a dweeb, nor a hipster. I'm not a femboy, nor a furry. I am allied to all of the above, though.

What am I?

[-] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

If you have to ask, you're #1.

[-] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

The guy who actually gets work done so in turn you are to busy to look in a mirror making you the de facto top left.

[-] Oka@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 days ago

Damn, you right
