About our fine profession

2.1)
I want to be a sysadmin. What should I do?

Seek professional help.

2.2)
So, I've just "volunteered" to be a sysadmin. What do I do?

See 5.3 Also look at the vocabulary pages, which can provide you with useful vocabulary for your sysadmin career.

2.3)
Where do sysadmins rank as a profession

Somewhere below janitors.

2.4)
How are new sysadmins made

The devil probably has something to do with it. See Simon's page on that subject

2.5)
What's a typical day in the life of a sysadmin

For an excellent, if somewhat optimistic, picture of a sysadmins life, see this page

Perhaps Abby Franquemont-Guillory summarised the life of a sysadmin the best, when she described us as:
"disgruntled, disenchanted with things we used to really get a kick out of, foul tempered, hard-drinking, heavy-smoking, overworked, with no real social life to speak of."

2.6)
Why can't I find my sysadmin?

See this page.

2.7)
What sort of music do sysadmins listen to?

This gets asked a lot. Probably all I can say is "loud", and even that isn't a given. A survey of the readership of ASR was taken, which may be found here
