Episode 13: How I Became a SysAdmin

· 32 min

Show notes

Before DevOps, SRE, and the cloud were all the rage, there were sysadmins—tech generalists who kept the lights on, often with duct tape, bash scripts, and caffine.

In this solo episode of The IT Guy Show, Eric shares how he broke into the world of system administration, from his earliest tech gigs to becoming the go-to Linux guy. Along the way, he reflects on the lessons learned, tools loved (and hated), and how the role of a sysadmin has evolved. Whether you're new to IT or just nostalgic for the days of cron, this one’s for you.
