Exhuasting, but there is a lot to learn.
Systems Administrator in Rocky Mount:

Underappreciated.
Systems Administrator in Alkimos:
Pros: Helping people
Cons: The low pay, the 20 hours unpaid overtime every week, long commute 1.5 hours each way. Management who know nothing about IT then make bad decisions against their specialist staff recommendations. Requests for new equipment go round and round every 3 months with no approvals. The having to pay for hard drives out of your own wages to keep the computers running. When management decide to stop paying for the asset manager, helpdesk, RMS and backup software you suddenly have a lot of manual busy work on top of normal work.
