Why is this fucking allowed?
Everyone around the office fucking loves the sysadmin and I've even seen people leaving chocolates and presents in his private office (yes, the motherfucker gets a fucking private office) while my developer colleagues and I are forced into open seating like pic related with help desk sitting in front of us and project managers behind to keep an eye on us, also we're viewed as "those weird programmers"

Sysadmin here. You want to know why "IT" in general hates you and why they love me?
Because the work I perform is tangible and has a real impact on the business. You could not do your job without me. You are a code monkey, that's why there are 500 of you and you all set in open seating without any idea of individualism. You're all the same person, why make an effort to treat any one of you differently?
But the sysadmin? He makes that fucking place run like clockwork man. He oils the machines, he maintains everything on "the network" and he makes it so you can type your bullshit "app" out in whatever DE you choose.
I work with about 400 of you fuckers, and I swear to christ, every time any one of you turbonerds open your mouths its all "agile this" and "breakfix that", like motherfucker all I hear is "I need guidance to get my job done and I still can't do it right". You know what I need? Myself, and occasionally Google for when you fuck up so hard you can't fix your own god damn shit.
There are literal camps set up for churning out morons like you in 6 weeks, straight from the street, no wonder everyone hates "developers", because literally everyone can be one now.
Good luck trying to learn to be a sysadmin in 6 weeks, I'll make sure to order you the extra soft tissues for when you begin to cry.

Get your /r/sysadmin pasted rant outta here.

There are so many reasons and the fact that you need to ask why is kind of shocking.
for one thing, testing code is a known thing. if you're letting fuckups out the door, it suggests that someone isn't reviewing your code and you're not running unit tests. i'd fucking fire you if you kept that shit up. we go through a lot of effort to provide you with tools to prevent that from happening, and worthless faggots like you come in thinking you're cowboys or something.
for another thing, your office's network is not a consumer-facing product. it's annoying if 50 of you are offline all day. fucking up hundreds of thousands (or millions) of users' latest update is a lot worse. people uninstall their apps for that shit. people write negative reviews and those reviews discourage others from installing the app.
so yes, your office can be a goddamn garbage fire behind closed doors, but don't let that shit get out to the end user. you fucking worthless, lazy, incompetent bundle of sticks.

>>make recommendation for the 5th time to get a redundant internet connection >>get yelled at every 15 minutes by increasingly higher up management because 300 people aren't working
I would kindly tell them to fuck off. I know you cant, but I know the feel m8.
Jaxson Green
A redundant internet connection to backstop the 5 hours per month that the IT guy fucks up the network. You know this is why you're the one making recommendations and they're the ones making decisions, right?
Jonathan Morgan
You need better QA.
Kevin Ortiz
I know this is Sup Forums and all, but you do understand that the point of a redundant provider isn't to provide insulation against a network administrator at the company fat fingering something, but to keep things going when a provider fails, right?
Bentley Wilson
do you not realize a developer is the one who made the software you use so that you can do your own fucking job?
youre basically a cable guy hey fix my fucking internet you dumb cable monkey whats so hard? just plug some cables in lmao

I can tell you're either a NEET or an idiot if you think a sysadmin plugs cables in all day. That's what delegating to your lower tiers are for.

You aren't solving ground breaking problems You aren't coming up with algorithms for better performance. You aren't involved with the creation of anything. You don't bring anything new into the world.
You're a nobody in the eyes of any full stack developer. Shoo

kek, i'm not even a sysadmin. There's no way your code changes the world if you think this is complex shit. Stop larping and have some respect for people that keep your infrastructure running.

Sysadmin need developers to make software that they use to do their job. > Sysadmins are not cable monkey, they design networks for business operation like developers design software that SA use for their job
Sysadmin who believe be god and don't code is a sysadmin that don't understand nothing of his own career

>That's what delegating to your lower tiers are for.
A sysadmin's job in entirety is a delegation of mundane, cumbersome tasks any developer can do.
Jace Wood
>There's no way your code changes the world if you think this is complex shit That's the easy part. The hard part is building the framework that aggregates said statistical data which can then be organized in a relational database and manipulated into something tangible.
There's a reason we get paid $20k+ more than you. Our work is harder, and requires far more thought.
>have some respect for people that keep your infrastructure running I personally had no problem with sys admins. Then this faggot posted calling everyone morons. What do you think my response is going to be?
Leo Walker
>24/7 job, laptop even in holidays so? every sys admin I have seen posted here brags about how they do less than 5 hours of actual work per week and how chill their job is. now you want to tell me how tough it is. fuck off

Because you pussies didn't kill the entire government after they threatened Ron Paul. You have no idea how many kike time travellers had to leave their childrape playgrounds to prevent American Revolution 2.0. All you had to do was mak e the choice to not be a pussy and we could have by bypassed their interference. Every ounce of pain you experience is karma.

this makes even less sense. what kind of miserable ghetto do you live in that the provider's service goes down so often that you think it's reasonable to recommend getting a backup on five separate occasions?
start getting performance guarantees from your providers and holding them to it, you fucking retard.
Jack Edwards
I'm a senior dev/"service architect" in a pretty large international company. I'm not sure what sysadmins people are talking about here. There's 'sysadmins' who keep the office running, these are the people who fix your office internet connection or the local printer. Then there's sysadmins who keep the datacenter running and sysadmins who keep my applications running and intervene 24/7 in any incident, these guys are definitely worthy of respect since they tend to know their shit and I most definitely don't envy their job, fuck having to be available outside of working hours.

Sysadmin here for around 40ish people
The reason I'm liked? Because I automate most stuff, teach people how to not fuck up and generally converse with them.
I don't work with devs, thankfully, but any that I've encountered in person seems to have the attitude of "I can't explain it to you how it works it would take too long". Meanwhile. the cloest time I've had to use that phrase was when I had to explain to the CEO how to set up a server with 50+ connections and it was only because it was out his depth
That and the last sysadmin had a programming background and tended to be an asocial idiot so I'm considered a saviour
