Sysadmin day

Published on:

Gosh, I learn from El Reg that there actually is such thing as the sysadmin day!

Let's face it, System Administrators get no respect 364 days a year. This is the day that all fellow System Administrators across the globe, will be showered with expensive sports cars and large piles of cash in appreciation of their diligent work. But seriously, we are asking for a nice token gift and some public acknowledgement. It's the least you could do. Consider all the daunting tasks and long hours (weekends too.) Let's be honest, sometimes we don't know our System Administrators as well as they know us. Remember this is one day to recognize your System Administrator for their workplace contributions and to promote professional excellence. Thank them for all the things they do for you and your business.

So I post this note to pay tribute to a few select sysadmins working here and here, who're doing a great job (they'll recognize themselves).

And I guess I'll have to congratulate myself on behalf of myself for all those servers that I secretly manage to save on our budget ;-).
