How Are You Celebrating National Sysadmin Day? 200
jfruh writes "July 26 is Sysadmin Day, the system administrator's version of Secretary's Day. Are you giving your hardworking sysadmin the recognition they deserve? Blogger (and, yes, sysadmin) Sandra Henry-Stocker argues that a holiday like this is needed because due to the nature of their job, in everyday life sysadmins 'get noticed least when they do the best work' So if your systems run so smoothly that you sometimes forget you even have a sysadmin on staff, be sure to recognize them for their excellent work today."

First I'm going to delete your inbox.
Then I'm going to switch your phone extension with Larry in facilities management.
And I think this afternoon I will take the Production environment down for a little while.

As usual, the only people who know (or care) about SysAdmin Day are sysadmins. Therefore, nothing is being done to celebrate it. Not even a free donut.

Are you saying system administrators are gods?
No, we're more in the Lord of the Files territory.
