SysAdmin Day 2008

July 25th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized

Happy System Administrator Day!  Whoo!

From Wikipedia:

System Administrator Appreciation Day, also known as Sysadmin Day, SysAdminDay or SAAD, was created by Ted Kekatos, a system administrator in Chicago. Kekatos was inspired to create the special day by a Hewlett-Packard magazine advertisement in which a system administrator is presented with flowers and fruit-baskets by grateful co-workers as thanks for installing new printers. The holiday exists to show appreciation for the work of sysadmins and other IT workers. It is celebrated on the last Friday in July. The first System Administrator Appreciation Day was celebrated on July 28, 2000.

And the official SysAdmin Day song: http://www.deadtroll.com/index2.html?/sysadmin/~content.
