Helpdesk Level ll

Did %dayjob% go out and do a salary survey on their particular position name? 
They might want to see if it exists...

I would call it something like "network support specialist" but that's just me. 
Instead %dayjob% came up with a name for the position which may actually make 
it harder for me to find someone to fill it.
