Worst part of tech work-
All the useless arcane incantations to get stuff done. Right now I'm working with a Cisco Firepower- web GUI keeps timing out trying to download the capture file I created in order to diagnose an issue. I know that the file exists on some obscure subdirectory that I can find on their site or via Google, then SSH/SCP into the actual box (not the management appliance I'm using right now) and copy over to another box.

But its probably going to burn an hour of productive time, because Cisco can't code their way out of a paper bag and make it work out of the box correctly. When I was younger it made we feel at least somewhat 133t that I was able to decipher all that- but I'm old now and just want to solve the dang problem, not burn hours proving how I can figure anything out.
