Data center sysadmin aren't allowed to have internet access or google

You seem incredibly frustrated about me having far more enjoyable work life than you.
Fuck me.
Americans sure are dum.

>doing fun stuff in a different location somehow makes it less fun

Getting my VCP6.5-DCV by the end of this year and LPIC-1&2 next year. Am I doing it right? I don't want to deal with the internet and/or Google anymore.

fuck all of this is really accurate except I actually do work and don't smoke

>working IT
>fucking girls
*sigh*

Europoor here. Is it really that bad? I mean, Jesus. I'm only making 35k a year and living is hella expensive but I get to work in like 15 minutes and nobody gives a shit if I'm 30 minutes late.

Wow, this explains the rapefugee crises in your countries: not only are you so passive and useless, you're also sickeningly lazy, and therefore easy to replace.

That's an exaggeration, but depending on your education, where you work, and where you live, it COULD be an actual reality.

Sysadmin here, the whole IT department has full internet access.
You just work to a shit company.

Datacenter tech reporting in
I watch porn at work with the millions of other chinese vpn clients.

Underrated post

Lol, in what world?
You're not a real sysadmin if you can't get around this.

How hard would it be to get a sysadmin job if I have stuff like a homelab and shit? I use GNU/Linux so is it better?

>being stem fags

>not being lawyers
>spend most of your day drinking and eating on the companies dime, and time you got work unload it on associates

Not in general at least.

It's pretty relaxed where I work. No set time for anything, come in and leave whenever you want, etc. However, I have a friend in SpaceX who told me they're asked to work ~70 hrs a week and come in on weekends. It depends where you work.

this. I work at a tech recycling facility and when there are no shipments, we don't do shit

Depends where you work. If your workday is actually anywhere near that long you're not on a clock and you're making some serious cash. I have worked in retail and in a salaried IT position and both were laid back and ~7-8 hour work days on average, neither paid very much but then I'm in my 20s and seriously lacking in post-secondary education.

Yeah, but you spend the first 10-20 years of your career after spending nearly a decade in school getting to that point and then you still have student loan debt to finish paying off, so by the time that you're actually making any real money that you can do something with you're within a couple decades of retirement.

Your job is the monitor the network activity and proxy filters. You have full control of everything. You can create a whole different VLAN on a switch port. How can you be this bad at what you do? Or is your work absolutely retarded?

Ah the 405 the bane of pretty much anyone living anywhere from Beverly Hills to Mission Viejo.
