  I don't think so.
  IT engineers are respected in the society; Don't compare IT engineers life to dogs life. It's too bad to think of such comparison even 😔

  ok.....Here is something !
  1) Dog dosn't have to obey stupid and weired orders of his boss.
  2) It's never worried about US market.
  3) It never grows his stomack fat.
  4) It doesn't have to work for 10-11 hrs a day.
  5) It doesn't work like a DOG to earn his bread butter and bear.
  6) It doesn't spend 95 % of his time with man made machines.
  7) It doesn't have to cross half of the earth just to purchase a big house, car and some more machines.
  
  more coming.....

  Are your guyz Crazy.....
  
  Saying what ever you wish to...
  
  Even I can say that a doctor is pathetically poised then a dog... or in any industry management guyz, treat engineers like dogs... comparison can be made anywhere, it should be sensible.
  
  In which industry lower level Guy need not to listen to manager... than whats the comparison of Dog here...
  No IT engineer spend 95% time with machine.
  Do you think all fatty persons are IT engineers.
  Even Prime minister Lal Bahadur used to work for 18 hrs a day... was he ..?
  
  Buddy I want to maintain the decorum of the forum so not counting what a dog do and a IT person do not do.....
  
  Request to biggi please do not open this type of thread which can hurt any body... at least not on CE forum where high possibilities are there that 30% engineers would be IT related guyz.
  
  Thanks and Regards... No harsh feelings.

  No IT engineer spend 95% time with machine.

  I do !
  1) I wake up with alarm of my cellphone :-( [a machine] No luxary of purchasing a seperate table clock for alarm !
  2) I go to office on a vehicle (machine) which takes 20 mins
  3) I take a tea from tea machine.
  4) I start working on computer (I call it as my machine) ( avg. 8 hrs a day)
  5) In office I receive calls on cellphone (machine)
  6) I come back to home on a vehicle (again machine) which takes 20 mins.
  7) I switch on Television (no doubt machine), watch it for say 1 hr.
  8) take dinner and this poor soul goes to bed to start his new day again spend with machines.

  Take a chill pill crazyboy. But yeah the discussion went a bit awry. Every profession these days demands more than what a person can give. Probably we all live a Horse's or a Donkey's life.
  
  But I'm not sure why would we be compared to a dog. Dogs, I believe, live quite a laid back leisurely life.

  trust me...
  
  We were intoa a project where equipment was being changed from one type to another type and a VoIP service provided..
  
  We were the part of integration test team... and trust me... 7 months it was hell for us...
  
  my colegues worked for 4 motnhs 7 dys a week... staying back till 1 am...
  know why...
  
  everyone being fresher did not want to loose onsite opportunity..
  
  evryone wanted to make their mark... and evryone struggled... no ono just complained...
  
  😀
  
  Finally..
  
  DOGS DONNOT HAVE THIS KINDA LIFE!!!

  Buddy.. do you sleep less than 1.2 hrs a day... if not then you do not spent more than or even equal to 95%.
  Simple calculation is (5/100)*24 = 1.2 Hrs, so if you happen to sleep more than that your excuses are waste.

  Yup Sir, I didn't mean any offense.
  
  I was just trying to say that don't use such a tone which will make your self feel guilt that we are in such a profession which is not even worth comparing us with human being.
  
  By the way... I do agree DOG's live quite a laid back leisurely life...
  
  Anyways thanks for keeping a check on the tones.
  
  Take a chill pill

  Relax fellas! We aren't really comparing IT engineers' life with that of a dog. Just take it lightly! You know there was an email circulating few months ago - comparing cubicles to jails and concluding that jails are much better. Anyone's got that mail? 😉

  C'mon ! It was for fun ! 😀
  okay! apart from calculations, it has to be agreed that we spend much time on computers.

  What rubbish.
  
  Title for this should be "Do IT engineers live a prisoner's life?" rather than "Do IT engineers live a dog's life?"

  I wish I could live a pet cat's life. Sleep 21 hours a day.. free luxury food and shelter, and control over your "boss".
  
  I wonder if theres any profession in real life that parallels that.
