From technology to politics to video games; these are the random thoughts of a geek with too much time on his hands
Have you hugged YOUR geek today?
Published on July 29, 2005 By Zoomba In Industry
Yes, that's right. Today, June 29th is System Administrator Appreciation Day! Today is the day that you should go out and actually thank your office computer guy for keeping all the systems running, even after you opened that email attachment promising pictures of hot tennis stars naked. Today is the day to show these guys and gals that keep the world from falling down on your head a bit of appreciation.

The official site lists a ton of ways to show your appreciation. I personally always enjoyed getting cookies and cupcakes.

Now, no holiday would be complete without a song. For that I point you to the Sys Admin Song by Wes Borg of Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie (performers of the classic song Every OS Sucks)

So, go out, hug a geek today and thank them for all their hard work. You can probably find them under the raised floor running cables, or behind the replica of the Leaning Tower of Piza made out of Mt. Dew cans
