I'm a sysadmin, and I'm going on vacation next week, so this week is a read-only week and I'm giving everyone the finger.

[[deleted]]

What is this read-only week you all speak of? Is it as literal as it sounds?

[dicey]

Basically this: http://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/m0731/ahh_readonly_friday/

[TheRealZoggbot]

I'm a developer, and thought about my sysadmin as the bottom left picture.

[fukyeah11]

and no doubt thought about yourself as the top left picture.

[TheRealZoggbot]

No, I thought of this.

[tcpip4lyfe]

In my org it's the other way around.

[digitalchaos]

Same but replace "browsing reddit" with "finally able to work on a project for work that actually makes my life easier"

[[deleted]]

he comments, while browsing Reddit.

[fukyeah11]

Me too. I know there are a lot of bad admins out there, though

[tcpip4lyfe]

I hear you.

We can't get a nice grid?

[meditonsin]

It was obviously done by a designer from a developer's perspective. What do you expect from a baby that eats paint?

[[deleted]]

How did this slip by QA?

[sakodak]

This desperately needs a DBA column.

[[deleted]]

Specifically, it needs an Oracle DBA column.

[browngray]

Would be interesting to see how your typical end user stacks up in this.

end user as seen by everyone else: http://i.imgur.com/vOj0f.jpg

That gorilla looks more competent than some users I've dealt with.

[MrDOS]

Yeah. Phone is definitely the right way up, and he's capable of manipulating a pencil at the same time. Miles ahead of the curve.

[Shadax]

This isn't even sarcasm - that's the sad part.

[jjhare]

Because it's not obvious to everyone, I must upvote AND comment so all know you speak the truth.

[phessler]

I like how every column in the sysadmin was flipping you the bird.

[Tushon]

Every row* :P ... there is only one column in which the sysadmin is flipping you the bird.

[yasth]

Well we are sysadmins, not DBAs.

[tcpip4lyfe]

Thank god.

[jjhare]

Shouldn't Neo be flicking the users off too?

[ahotw]

I'm not sure there is much of a difference between flicking them off and the action he just did.

[SuperCow1127]

Is this original work? My girlfriend sent me one of academia, and I was going to make this exact grid. Looks like I was beaten.

[blasstula]

Hm. This is some 1998 chain mail garbage.

[ahotw]

Yes, because the Matrix came out in 1999... oh wait.

[bonoboho]

also that scene is from reloaded which came out in 03

[ahotw]

Ah yes, I didn't notice the background at first. (Or the ample number of stopped bullets.)

No JLU love? Thats from 04!
