  • System Administrator Appreciation Day is here, show them some love (or suffer the consequences)

    Last year, on July 29th, we asked you to show a little love to your sysadmin because, without them, our world would probably come to a screeching halt. We suggested a card, or at least a polite nod in the hallway. Instead, you went all out and actually gave them a bit of raise. That doesn't mean you can let System Administrator Appreciation Day slip by this year without acknowledgment, however. We're not saying you've got to outdo yourselves and get them some sort of super yacht -- a simple thanks will do. But, they probably wouldn't mind a repeat of last year's gift either.

    What would the world be like without sysadmins? Chaos. That's what. So take a moment before the day is over to acknowledge the hard work that your own system administrator does day in and day out; a gift, a card, a nod in the hallway -- anything will do. Trust us. You don't want to make them angry. [Thanks, Adam]
