    Smartest IT guy.

    Not IT Professional. IT Guy.

    Big difference. My dumb ass could be an IT guy. I can fix printers and replace peripherals. I can’t troubleshoot a database. I am not an IT Professional.

      Are you getting paid to do anything IT related? Then you’re an IT professional. I know people have been getting confused about this word because of iPhones and gaming mice, but all it really means is a person who’s a member of a profession.
