They’re all the same person
The bottom 2 seem accurate. Source: I’m an IT person
The bottom two are just the top two at home.
Can confirm I am 2 and 4
Same…
Cyber security eh?

You have a cock gun?
If you clean it too aggressively, it’ll go off sometimes
Only sometimes?

My comment is still visible?!‽
Oh God oh shit oh fuck
But, like, are there types of IT women? Asking cause I am one and don’t know any tropes for us lol
Go forth and forge your own destiny, free of stereotypes. Or just be Alex from YIIK idk.
Unicorn… Nah, I’m kidding fortunately for women there’s no strong stereotypes. There were enough women in my gigs that the individuality was easily apparent.
Since that’s isn’t really fun I’ll pull some very broad strokes descriptions out my rear end and see which one resonates with you.
The Professional Mom: 8-4:30 on the dot but maximum effort during working hours and never ever seen goofing off or chit chatting (lunch included). Pretty chill though and smart as hell.
The boardgame/crossword girl: most likely to be gender fluid. Don’t ever mistake her for “gamer girl”. Will happily shoot the shit with you and goof off if you treat her like human being. Will probably have real experiences of getting work/credit stolen by tech bros.
The optimistic young coder: super jazzed about being the in the field and learning everything about anything. A people pleaser to a fault. Give it two to three years before she’s completely jaded. Until then, an absolute sponge of knowledge.
The cut throat career track woman: absolutely obsessed with advancing her status. Tech bros learn brutality from these ladies. Usually transition to pure management or product divisions pretty early. Also most likely to organize the “women in tech” meetings for clout in the current company. Stay on their good side for your sake.
All I can think of is Lisbeth slander from the millennium series. That’s pretty kickass.
These are 100 types
10 types of people in this world as the saying goes
Only the Sith deal in absolutes!
What monster would use base 4?
Why are you showing us the same person 4 times?
Starts out as top left, starts taking care of himself and going to the gym, reaches top right and keeps going until getting to bottom left. Meanwhile the bottom right picture gets skinnier over time.
Doesn’t have the guy who seems to always be asleep at the desk but is also somehow the most efficient IT worker.
Why do you think they have time to sleep?
If IT is doing everything right then most of the time there won’t be much for them to do. I’d much rather they spent most of their time waiting for incident tickets than constantly putting out fires.
I generally sleep during the day, skips the useless meetings. Then I go to the office around 8pm and crank out profit for my corporate overlords. They (mostly) understand it’s better for them this way, and I meet all the expectations of office attendance and social gatherings.
“Men are dominating IT”
The “men” “dominating”:
Dominate me daddy uwu
Also hello, the fuck is wrong with your laptop this time
What?
:neofox_pleading:

Ikr. Where are the near retired 50 year old who are stagnating the tech just to avoid getting fired and the 2 overworked employees who are the smes in everything for the department.
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.
The “lumberjack” style / hipster.
Ew… Gross.
I’ll wear the femboi outfit.
Well now you’re just gonna attract bears.
Yeah thanks Gilfoyle!
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 :)
I’m guessing the other guy’s a furry then.
Both are, just one is in denial
I’m not the bottom two, that much I know.
I can’t grow a beard… oh no.This is a weird political compass
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.
… it’s mostly the top left.
Source: i resemble the top left (although i still have my hairline)
I was like fuck that’s me. My hairline isn’t great but I’m in my early 50s.
It’s 90% of the IT people at my jobs and I had quite a few.
it needs more bottom left
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
Indian guy - top right
Emo developer - top left
Script kiddy - top left
Linux fan - top left
Windows fan - top left
Ibm frat boy - top right
Open BSD lunatics - bottom left
Guy who loves trains too much - bottom right
