I got this from a customer today! She thought I sounded stressed on the phone so she sent me this to cheer me up 🙂

10. You see a bumper sticker that says "Users are Losers" and you have
no idea it is referring to drugs.

9. Your sleep schedule is similar to that of the great horned owl.

8. You make more than all of the MBAs you know who actually
finished college.

7. You have enough computing power in your house or apartment to
render obscene pictures of upper management people.

6. Your idea of a social event is going to a Non-Disclosure
Discussion.

5. The last time you wore a tie was your high school graduation.

4. The last time you kissed someone was in high school.

3. "What? No raise? No Backups, then!"

2. You have a vanity plate on your car that names part of the Unix
File System.

And the number one sign you might be a Sysadmin...

1. You have ever uttered the phrase "I will be working from home
today so I can avoid wearing pants."


 
I called a place once to update some info on a loan, I gave the woman my ip address 3x instead of my SS# before I realized what I was doing, haha.
 


<< I gave the woman my ip address 3x instead of my SS# before I realized what I was doing >>



Wow!! Scary thing is I can actually relate to that :Q

lol

3. "What? No raise? No Backups, then!"

I think number three might be funnier if it read:

!$raise == !$backups
 


<< 10. You see a bumper sticker that says "Users are Losers" and you have

Is that really about drugs? That one caught me!



<< 5. The last time you wore a tie was your high school graduation. >>



I barely wore ties to job interviews...
