Yeah, that part of Fog Creek has always amused me to no end. ~Developers~ are special and unique snowflakes who need a private office and a personal happy-ending masseuse, but sysadmins can work from the bottom of a shoebox, because fuck those guys, right?

Have you ever met a sysadmin? This actually looks like the exact office most of the ones I know would want.

I am a sysadmin, and I can guarantee that I would much much much prefer a private office to a shoebox in the basement with somebody else crammed in there.

The work of the modern sysadmin is nearly indistinguishable from that of the developer.

But we ARE special and unique snowflakes :D
