The cry of the sysadmin's soul

I understand and don't understand it all at the same time. I understand that the sysadmin is just a service staff, but I do not understand why the work of cleaning staff is valued higher than that of a sysadmin, although the loss from finger-grabbed pens in the toilet is immeasurably lower than the destruction of the annual balance sheet the day before.

I understand that I can be abrupt and even rude (rather occasionally be polite and friendly), but I do not understand why the User can not learn a dozen operations required for HIS, USER, work. I understand that my appearance doesn't allow me to be seen by the management, but I don't understand how it's possible to change the power supply in a suit and tie, without getting up to my ears in dust and debris surrounding the system unit.

I understand that the budget of an organization is a complicated and versatile thing, but I don't understand why I have to beg for money for a cooler for months, praying that a desktop fan, bought with my own money and blowing air over an entire rack of equipment, doesn't die.

I understand that the internet is 90% porn sites and 100% of those sites have viruses, but I don't understand how users who can't type their password manage to bypass filtering proxy servers and ignore multi-stage anti-virus protection.

I understand that I have to ensure that the network will run smoothly under all circumstances, including a direct hit by a meteorite on the server, but I don't understand when a request to buy a UPS is answered that "the building electrical grid will withstand any surges caused by computers".

I understand that everyone from the security guards to the board members will lug their electronics (including irons and lawnmowers) to me for repairs and tune-ups, but I don't understand why anyone would hate me for refusing to set the system time back 10 minutes or letting me download all the goblin translations of movies.

I understand that my health is just my problem and my salary doesn't allow me to order food to my workplace, but I don't understand why I have to pore over the execution of another boss's whim at night, as server reboot during the day leads to a total paralysis of another deathmatch among top managers.

I understand that my wife is not interested in hearing about human-computer compatibility issues, but I don't understand why I don't get paid holiday pay for four unused holidays.

I understand that a good sysadmin should be able to do a lot of things, but I don't understand why I have to do the work of the advertising and design departments, or monitor the electricity, fire alarms, phone lines and video surveillance systems.

I understand why I need a computer, but I don't understand why users who all they do is type text and then print it out, all the while complaining about poor graphics card performance.

I want to turn off my mobile phone for at least a couple of hours, at least at night, but I don't want all my family and friends' phones to be cut off in the meantime.

I believe that my work will still be appreciated, but I don't believe that the price will be enough and the bills will be paid.

I know that my work is needed, but now I don't know if I want it...

Stumbled across it by chance. Seems old, but it's hilarious. Especially in the context of last year's defence of the GDP tigers with DiCaprio etc.


 

27.01.2011 04:06 : Some Russian Wahhabist named Razdobudko is wanted in connection with the terrorist attack at Domodedovo airport.

Did they eat a lot of fly agaric?

This is official news! I did not make anything up.

I don't know which thread to write in. It doesn't seem appropriate, but on the other hand... that's nonsense!

I'm sorry if that offended anyone...

 
Oh, man... I haven't laughed like that in a long time :))) http://fishki.net/comment.php?id=82695

Oh, what's going on with the quid. I didn't eat the ticket for nothing.
Eat another euro and in 200 pips eat the dollar again. Then we'll push the pound. The pound has already eaten two.
