Tomorrow is System Administrator Day 2006

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the pizza-bawls-dates-toys-cash-chocolate dept.

ferrgle writes with a reminder of the annual observation of Sysadmin Day. "This celebration's aim is to acknowledge the tireless effort that sysadmins perform every day of the year. It is celebrated on the last Friday of July and more info can be read at sysadminday.com This year there is also a dedicated site for sys admins who are Welsh or who live in Wales (it can be found at sysadminday.org.uk). We hope that all sys admins have a nice day on Friday and get a little less hassle than normal."

    These "secretary" oh i mean "administrative executive assistant" days are just pointless. if someone is doing a good job, you tell them. they don't need a special day of appreciation for someone doing their job.

    Windows administrators are not sys admins.

    They are stupid monkeys that couldn't get a real job.
