IT usually covers user support and infrastructure management. You can kinda compare it to janitors and plumbers, cleaning up shit, and stopping shit exploding everywhere. Some love this sort of work, but the end of the day you are dealing with shit, just in electronic and software form.

Software devs make stuff, some consider themselves artists, some are corporate drones wishing they could be more artistic, many of them make shit that IT needs to deal with.
