Makes sense I didn’t get the job, I only vaguely know the difference and it was mostly theoretical stuff like CI/CD, but those recruiters really wanted to throw me at random interviews to see if I’d stick :D

PS: sorry I offtopic’ed to recruiter-hating, gonna go find a community for that.

What makes DevOps so different from sysadmin? Recruiters always told me “it’s nearly the same”, but I never got the job, so I guess idk.

“Unfair” is an offensive understatement. We’re swindled like cattle and the more vulnerable you are, the more you are exploited. I’m not even sure where the break-even point of “fair” is where your efforts compound for the better rather than for the worse. Anyone below 2million is probably facing a nasty uphill battle with the system unless they are lucky or have connections.

At this point, to me, it’s fuck reddit, spez is just a scapegoat that does what the board wants and all other admin happy to comply, he doesn’t own it like elon owns twitter
