Two weeks in IT and Bob would absolutely lose his shit.... That man is too calm for IT. Or he'd stay calm as ice while planning to burn the place down Office Space style.
I think that calm is really good for IT. We let others out too much of a demand on us and let their anxiety become ours.
In a crisis, security incident, or outage that calm is going to be so beneficial. "We're going to have a little downtime. The application isn't ruined. It's just a little unplanned patch. It's going to be better because we needed to fix it."
I know a guy who channels that energy, and it worked really well as making the C-suite types listen to him (more than they typically would listen to an IT dude).
