Why am I thinking they got the System Administrator to bake the cake?

Sysadmins compile?
Thought that was a dev thing and we dabble in code

I was thinking more Linux on general

The salutation for System Administrator day is "Happy System Administrator Day! Hey, since I've got you here do you think you can <insert task here>"

The customary reply is "Thanks! I'll add it to my list"

That's a funny way to say "Have you opened a ticket?"

I made a homemade cheesecake for my coworker's birthday and nobody touched it.

So, no, my colleagues don't celebrate System Administrator Appreciation Day.

We keep telling you Ivan, no one wanted to eat your vegan cheesecake! /s

In all seriousness, that's sad ...

Was it New York or Chicago style?

[โ€“] ivanafterall@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Carnegie deli-style with a shortbread crust.

They were fools! If we worked together I'd eat the cheesecake.

I'm not even called a "System Administrator" any more. Like "Computer Operator", that term has fallen out of use in Australia.
These days, my job title is always some combination of the "devops", "system", "Cloud" and "engineer". Never "Administrator".
