When was the last time you thanked your SysAdmin?

SysAdmin day is celebrated on the last friday of July every year around the world. With this year's SysAdmin Appreciation Day just a week away, we wonder how much importance companies around us give to the overworked and (mostly) underpaid SysAdmins! Do companies still think that they are a necessary overhead? Do they still try in vain to figure out how to calculate their effort into monetary gains for the company? Are they respected as much as they should have been? Or, are they also dragged into the nasty politics that is typical of Indian companies? Were they ever provided with enough system resources they needed?

Well, we feel that more and more companies in India started looking at SysAdmins as valuable assets to their companies than they were a few years ago.

As a coworker, when was the last time you thanked your SysAdmin? Not that they expect someone to appreciate them, but still, they do need a pat for all the good work they do - silently.


As a company or coworker,  feel free to appreciate your system admin(s) at least on the SysAdmin Day on coming friday (July 30, 2010).
