10th Annual System Administrator Appreciation Day

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the beware-the-bofh dept.

This is the day that all fellow System Administrators across the globe will be showered with large piles of cash and expensive sports cars in appreciation of their diligent work. But seriously, we are asking for a nice token gift and some public acknowledgment. It's the least you could do."

    Actors have the academy awards.
    Physicists have the Nobel Prize.
    Computer programmers have furry conventions.

    Why not give sys admins the same respect?
