What is the comfiest IT related profession?

Being the sysadmin of gensokyo does sound comfy

Sysadmin.
Every so often a Mac/Win/BSDtard will come suck your dick for no reason.

This, it’s just watching journalctl -f all day

what makes this job so easy tho?

Kek nobody in our dept can even use PowerShell aside from Google copy and paste. We make new user accounts in an Azure GUI

You're something like a computer paramedic or fireman. You do do a lot of research and do proactive, preventive stuff so you don't have to pull all-nighters beyond the age of 20.
But 80% of the time you're just napping at your desk and getting paid for it.
You're also the one setting up firewalls and porn filters.

sounds based actually, gonna look into it

Neet

i've always wanted to study something in the IT field but never considered this

As a Firewall Sysadmin, this.
I just hang around for 7h a day and do whatever I want. The remaining 1h are just answering user tickets which are either locked themselves out of the firewall or need a new authorization.

Doesn't get boring after a while? Also where's the growth?

man i should have become a sysadmin earlier. i remember way back in school there was this one old lady that looked like she was locked in a basement and talked about microsoft certs and servers and shit. she seemed so comfy and relaxed. instead i pissed away my youth at uni falling for engineering meme which is diametrically opposed to comfiness. well better hop onto the train late than never!

What's work like? What distro do you use? What cons exist besides boring or annoying person calling for you? I refuse to believe that something this comfy can be a job with a good outlook.

Field technician

whatever you're good at

save that money and retire early

I did this and we would stand in car factories for 12 hours a day working with blue-collar folk. It was bullshit. Not worth the salary.

Ah, definitely depends on the time of field technician.

I'm an IT Trainer, so I just train all of the non technical employees how to use our systems. It's pretty chill and I still get to play with new stuff when it comes out.

Can’t really have growth/excitement and comfy at the same time user. If you want growth choose a different IT job

That's unfair. I want big money and to take it easy at the same time.

gravy sysadmin jobs are in education or small companies where you are the sole jack of all trades. even then, it's a crap shoot whether the company demeanor is chill because they trust what you're doing despite not understanding it, or constantly suspicious that you're not jerking off 7.5 hours a day because they don't understand what you do. if you don't hate your job as a sysadmin for a significant amount of time, you've never been a sysadmin.

This is true.

A real sysadmin on Jow Forums. Hello, fren.

Not him, but I work as a Linux/HPC sysadmin for a DoE lab and work on supercomputers. We're getting the fastest in the world soon. nbcnews.com/mach/science/new-aurora-supercomputer-poised-be-fastest-u-s-history-ncna985121

Work is cool, I get to basically take whatever project I want if it improves the environment. We use Ubuntu for our workstations and CentOS for the servers. Cons stem from the place that I work rather than the job itself. It's pretty awesome.

Data scientist maybe. Depends. I basically get to dick around with whatever I like and research what I like, and once in a blue moon someone comes up and asks me to actually do something practical with my wizard skills. Then I write a few lines of Python and call it a day.

I'm 'helpdesk' but have the sysadmin password, and a phone tech, and even though we have 'outside IT' none of them know what's going on.

Is there ever an escape from 'jack of all trades computer man'?

Literally every industry in 2019.

Nah, every so often something shits itself and you're the only one not freaking out.
In our modern society, the sysadmin is usually the only person in the office who can assemble IKEA furniture or unjam printers. Or simply lift heavy things.
