Sysadmin Appreciation day my ass! In my country, Malaysia to be exact, and most Asian countries, SysAdmin is a non-glamorous job, the pay sucks, you get blamed for everything, the only thing that other ppl think you're doing (your colleague) is to keep their fucking internet connection UP, and the fucking developers won't heed your advice when you tell them to document their codes... Yes I'm a system admin. I'm 23 years old, and nobody appreciates me, and nobody knows what I do, eventhough I solve developer's programming problems, fix their linux box, install ICQ for them so that they can chat on the Net (this includes me opening port 4000 on the firewall). Sorry to be whiny. --sfork
