Ask HN: Would you like to have “Was a Sys Admin” written on your tombstone?

1 pointsby jileczechover 5 years ago
I am struggling to find meaning in IT work. I&#x27;ve been in the IT field for 7 years now, 6 years of college and 3 years of working.... and I don&#x27;t know if the passion just got sucked out of me in school, or if it wasn&#x27;t in me in the first place...<p>Currently I am doing Sys Admin job, before I was Java EE programmer, but I never really immersed or rooted myself in the field, because I was&#x2F;am not sure, if it is the right thing for me.<p>Could you throw me something, like what is the meaning of your work for you? Would you like having &quot;Sys Admin&quot; in your epitaph? Why? (well, &quot;his uptime has ended&quot; is better, but that is not my question&#x2F;point).
