As a former sysadmin I agree with this chart
As former QA I also agree with this chart.
Sysadmin 4 Life.
As a network admin, the sysadmins are a bunch of fucking monkeys.
Don’t be jealous just because we can do your job as well as our own.
even the AV guys can do network these days
Yeah they are great at getting the vlan access just right. Right?
juuuuuussstttttttt r- oh fuck its gone.
its always (m)DNS
Pretty sure you got that backwards, bud. Everytime there’s a problem the sysadmins can’t solve they immediately blame it on the network. Then we gotta dig out our sysadmin hats and fix it for them.
probably highly dependent on your work environment:
it’s the exact opposite at our office…
- mail service goes down
- dafuq.jpeg
- check icmp; no ping
- was there an update, patch or something? …nope?
- check with network: did you guys change anything?
- oh yeah, new network config!

As a Sysadmin the network admins are constantly breaking our comms, so fuck is both, right?
In my job, I put on all five of those hats in the same day.
And how do you see yourself?
I guess a corporate slave /s
No need for the /s brother. We are all wage slaves.
For the last five years I’m been the one man show. There are only five sites and around a hundred and twenty machines. Really a low effort job truth be told. I’ve finally got rid of all the ‘managed solutions’ and things rarely break as a result.
Doesn’t look like project managers come off good to anyone, then. Even themselves.
Its true.
IT is true
Sysadmins don’t give a fuck about the lesser disciplines.
Yes, but can you tell me what “IT” stands for?
Involuntary Twitching?
Can you? I’ve been a sysadmin for thirty years. Guess.
What does it stand for? What doesn’t it stand for?
I have no idea what you are on about. I don’t care either. You have said less than nothing and I’m gonna ignore you from now on. You seem like management. Full of shit.
Yes, yes I can see what you’re getting at. But the specific letters: “I” “T”, what do they stand for?
Top left should be a clown, source I’m a developer.

The “seen by project managers” row is so accurate it hurts. It needs to be updated with a caption that reads “chatGPT please tell me how to replace this person with a subscription”.
I was a sysadmin for decades and I can confirm this is pretty accurate.
