That's why we are searching for AEGEEans to keep an eye on them (so, also tell your friends about this amazing opportunity!). Some hints what they really like:

Server management
➖ Monitoring/maintaining of them
➖ Taking care of keeping them uptodate (who does not want to be up to date?)
➖ Introduce them to new services (not to get bored)

Client management
➖ Taking care of all their tiny sisters and brothers (client computers) of the CD/head office staff

Sounds interesting?
