Sys Admin Prayer
All Sys Admins start their day by reciting this prayer:
Our Server,
who art in the data center,
hallowed by thy CPU.
Thy computations done.
Thy process ended.
With results written to disk
and to tape.
Give this day our daily reports,
and give us not confusing errors,
but produce graphs and charts
for the PHBs I must endure.
Leads us not to core dumps,
but deliver us from lusers.
For thine is the Power Supply,
the RAM and Hard Disk, forever.
Amen.
