… its a website run by the US Government. Why does it have such large downtimes in this day and age?

    Having worked for social security for 5 years, and now 20 years in IT, I’m totally not surprised. No idea what part of this website is, but you can either afford redundancies or downtown.

      Come on. If you actually worked for social security you have to know why. It’s is related to mainframe batch processing.

      But I can see why you might say what it did. Maybe you think it seems cooler to simply dump on the government it meant your 20 years of experience is 1 year repeated 290 times. So really 1 year of experience but you just got older.
