"One thing I love about being a System Administrator is the chance to work on the current technology, and to build and manage a huge system infrastructure gives you a sense of satisfaction and achievement."

"I love being on top of all the systems. And sometimes I hate getting into tiny details while trying to make people understand the gravity of the situation."

"I love being a systems administrator because I am absolutely in love with technology, every facet of it! What I dislike about being a systems administrator is when users and management do not understand why we are so important."

"The Director I worked for had a system he developed that was too customized and confusing for any Systems Admin to quickly catch on to."

"The never ending learning and technology growth that goes hand in hand with keeping up in this industry."

"Working with cutting edge technology."

"I like dealing with computers, and love being handed an interesting puzzle to solve, but when the job becomes being tasked with fixing the same problem over and over it can get dull."

"The constant challenges that I'm able to overcome quickly."

"I love it because it pays money and money makes life just a little more bearable."

"Love all the projects but I do hate all the pressure probably mostly from being the only IT person company wide."

"Love everything so far down to the nitty gritty. User permissions, access privileges, customer support and all other aspects of being a system admin. I haven't found anything that I hated, but if I ever do, will be sure to let you know. I would recommend everyone that likes this field to try this exciting experience we call System Admin."

"I loved my job, but I'm looking for a higher salary."

"I love the amount of projects I am given. They can be very eccentric at times and are a great break from the day to day. The only issue is the politics of the company. The model of the company makes it tedious and sometimes difficult to reach point c from point a when point b doesn't let you."

"I really enjoy working as a Systems Administrator. It's rewarding to help people and also you learned many new things when you do. What I love the most about this job is there is always new things to learn and technology is always advancing. What I don't like about this position is assume you know everything about electronics and expect to fix it."
