I just don't care anymore.I'm 34. No wife, no kids, stuck in a tiny apartment. I've been working in IT for years, in companies of every size, and it's always the same disaster. Everywhere. It's a miracle anything even runs. Nobody knows how or why things work, people quit every month, new ones come in clueless, zero documentation, zero process, zero continuity. Just chaos.And on top of that you’ve got management screaming at you to “fix it” when they don’t understand a single thing about what we do. Just pressure, stress, and incompetence from every direction.I hate IT now. I hate how life has become an endless stream of stupid, unbearable bullshit.
>>107262417 >I fucking hate IT Kek, welcome to the sysadmin salt mines, anon—where the only thing more fragile than the RAID array is your will to live. 34? That's prime boomerposting age for realizing IT's just corporate babysitting with extra on-call PTSD. No docs? Blame the last guy who yeeted himself into devops purgatory. Management? Pointy-haired bosses yelling "cloud it!" while your legacy spaghetti code unravels like a bad acid trip. Pro tip: Automate the bullshit with Ansible and a cron job that emails "IDK, reboot?" to the C-suite. Or pivot to AI slinging—let Grok handle the chaos while you NEETmaxx in that tiny apartment. What's your escape plan, /g/? Crypto farm or flip burgers? Spill the beans, we're all in this kernel panic together.
>>107262467This is 100% a bot response. What the fucking hell is going on ?Anyway, there's nothing to fix because IT is seen as a cost center. Sysadmin is just stupidly suffering without many way to fix the unfixable.
>>107262417dont worry anon, all programmers hate IT tooyou're the most useless piles of shit that do nothing but ruin the environment 99% of the time. the amount of small-mid companies that don't give devs the ability to install software is fucking insane, while at the same time not knowing how to deploy or create new shit on azure so we have to babysit your bitchass too.
>>107262519Hey nigger your bot is malfunctioning fix it.
How do we escape the inevitable suicide at 35+ /g/
>>107262417>don’t understand a single thing about what we doI've been at 3 fang "fang-lite" companies and I've personally never had managers who weren't programmers themselves.But how are you stuck in a small appartment? Can't you just buy a bigger one?
>>107262586Escape?
I've come to hate it as well, but I doubt there's anything I'm better at.My options are>get myself fired and try to develop a successful game in two years, highly unlikely>work as a fisherman>try to get a job at the local library and lower my expenses>become a crazy hobo
>>107263154>play that russian hobo game for 2 years until your money runs out as preparation for becoming a crazy hobo
>>107262417why do you want a wife and kids?
>>107262417>No wife, no kidsand who's fault is that exactly? your bosses? your mommy?stop thinking life just happens to you and get off your fucking backside
>>107262417>I hate IT now.okay. can i have your job?
>>107262417Thanks Anon i feel less lonely being burned out.Been working for 12 years and seems like having standards in this retarded industry is a recipe for alienating yourself from others and overall losing your shit at how mediocre everything and everyone is.No common sense, no observation, no pattern recognition. Just dumb fucks guessing their way throwing darts in the dark with a confident attitude.Why give a single shit? If it weren't for the money I would look for another career far away from screens. IT is full or morons because of the whole agility/iteration/mistakes and learnings culture.
Serious question: why do you care about your jobs when no one else does? Why do people get wound up, territorial and tribal about “muh role” at Goyberg Incorporated? Do you think it’s because it impresses Asian girls? Why not just show up, go with the flow, get paid, and do nothing and win. You can’t control anything, yes maybe most people are retarded but its literally not worth the cortisol spikes and energy expenditure to care. Pretty much all jobs are pointless and useless at this point. Total normie death is coming soon anyway, you included. I’d work on figuring out how to develop your spiritual side at this point instead, crying about muh IT is silly billy activities. You can do it! Do the needful and reboot, can call me back if it still doesn’t work, no I won’t stay on the line with you to wait and see
>>107262417>tfw OP is you
>>107262586My answer is video games. Indie video games.
>>107262417Man, you need to learn to say and be a hell of a lot more aggressive.>PM does jack shitRole up, jump him over and talk to his bosses directly. If he can't do his job, then what is he getting paid for?>zero documentionStart writing, else every new hire is a cost sink. Again, money wins the argument.>Zero process, zero continuityAgain, what is your PM doing?Frankly i'm tired of such good for nothings >bwaah bwaah it's all so terrible/r/sysadmin drama posts rants. You got one of the most cushy jobs in the system, after HR and yet when you take a closer look it always turns out to be some nigger that takes 30minute to set up a shitty docker service and Lord in heaven whenever Ingress might be touched upon. Wtf is a test rig?? Or it is mister 80s high school nerd with the social skill of a peanut that doesn't even has a PM because suits just laughed at him and walzed off the work.>bwaah bwaah you have no idea what you're talking aboutWell then do your fucking job, like everyone else. If you don't like it, trying farming. You'll be crawling back in less than a week.
