Who is more Nerdy? IT Staff or Accountants?

Hey yall!

This article is just for fun... gits and shiggles if you know what I mean.

But anywho, seriously... who is nerdier?

IT Staff or Accountants?

Well, its such a tricky question...

You see IT staff work with computers... so in theory they should be pretty nerdy right?

But accountants work with numbers constantly, and they do work ON computers... and since accountants are pretty boring at the office, ye gotta figure they are anything but boring in their private lives, right?

You know, Mr Tweed at work... goes home and he becomes Super Toy Railroad Construction Man!

The same thing with the IT guys... sure they like their computers and gadgets, but what happens when they go home? Dungeons and Dragons Online? Do they invite friends over and play Magic the Gathering? Do they watch the latest episodes of Big Bang Theory repeatedly (like I sometimes do...)?

Or do they go to the archery range? (Seriously, a whole lotta of IT guys at the archery range... its like golf for nerds. Note: I have yet to meet an accountant at the archery range however.)

The point I am trying to make is that accountants and IT staff don't sit at home in their sunrooms reading Agatha Christie novels... (Agatha Christie to me is the epitome of boredom.)

And then again they're not exactly jumping and down to go play basketball, baseball, hockey on the Rideau Canal when its iced over and slapshot a puck through some Ottawa windows... although frankly, hitting hockey pucks or baseball balls in the direction of 24 Sussex does sound quite entertaining.

Well... how about we let the INTERNET decide which is nerdier... lets pick two companies, one which does IT staffing Toronto and the other with Toronto accountants. I say Toronto because at least then we narrow the field for local bias. ie. Cleveland accountants might be more boring than Las Vegas accountants, for obvious reasons.

Next we go to their websites and see which website looks nerdier.

The accountants apparently like row boats, or in this case sculling.

The IT staffers apparently like to shake hands and sit around drinking coffee, occasionally stretching their muscles judging by the one girl flexing.

Next we do a Google image search of their domain names:

Accountants

VS.

IT Staff

Difficult to say which looks nerdier.
