About SysAdmin Day | sysadminday.com (http://sysadminday.com/about-sysadmin-day/)
article : Friday, July 27, 2012, is the 13th annual System Administrator Appreciation Day. On this special international day, give your System Administrator something that shows that you truly appreciate their hard work and dedication. (All day Friday, 24 hours, your own local time-zone).

Let’s face it, System Administrators get no respect 364 days a year. This is the day that all fellow System Administrators across the globe, will be showered with expensive sports cars and large piles of cash in appreciation of their diligent work. But seriously, we are asking for a nice token gift and some public acknowledgement. It’s the least you could do.

Consider all the daunting tasks and long hours (weekends too.) Let’s be honest, sometimes we don’t know our System Administrators as well as they know us. Remember this is one day to recognize your System Administrator for their workplace contributions and to promote professional excellence. Thank them for all the things they do for you and your business.

Will this ridiculousness never end? I hereby declare that July 28 shall henceforth be known as "Grocery store check-out clerk" day, and the day after that shall be "Traffic-light squeegee guy" day.

Cheers

There will be yet another line of Hallmark cards for System Admins:

"When you Err Enough to Commend the very Stressed"

Our system administrators do nothing but make our computers work less well, and add complexity and unnecessary hurdles between me and getting my job done. I swear the university would be better off to fire the lot of 'em, hire 6 teenagers to keep the firmware up to date in the routers, and play WoW the rest of the time.
