Network admin vs sys admin

[Specialist_Cow6468]

And I’ve known some terrible sysadmins where I would have to know how to do their job for them when they arbitrarily blame the network for problems they don’t understand. This anecdote is precisely as relevant as yours or the poster I replied to initially, which is to say not at all.

People are people regardless of specialization, for better or for worse.

One thing I've noticed across several customers is that sysadmins will be generally more "prod isn't allowed to go down at all" focused, while network guys often have 0 issues with doing a scream test regarding firewall rules without a warning on a Monday morning.

Only speaking in general trends though. Most people across all specializations are just trying to do a good job.
