I've been a SysAdmin for over 6 years and I can't agee more. I don't need an appreciation day. I make close to 100k and have a fair amount of perks. I'm near the top of the food chain in some ways. I get training, comp time, and sometimes work from home.
Those SysAdmins that are whinging here, please stop. You make us look bad. If you are treated that poorly at your job, go get a new one. It's not that hard. Bust your butt and become a true guru, get some people/management skills, and get out of there. I don't need a stupid mp3 player or red stapler. I buy plasma screens and mutual funds and vacation in vegas. Keep the stupid t-shirts, just get that p570 funded and leave my DMX alone.
