Not OC: Just found this on my old hard drive while grabbing some other stuff.
As a seasoned sysadmin, I approve.

As someone who has been working in IT for 20+ years this is completely inaccurate except for the sys admin column.

The great promise of the cloud was to outsource sysadmins to be Microsoft and Amazon's problem.
At the cost of getting new sysadmins who are less numerous, but ask for more money, and best of all, you get to pay Microsoft and Amazon to train them!

As a developer, I see sysadmins/devops as black magic masochists
I refer to our sysadmin as a BOFH and he doesn’t seem to mind. The younger devs don’t know the term without googling it.
The sysadmin column feels so right.

He's probably secretly delighted, although of course he'd never tell you that.

I choose to take that as a compliment (if it wasn't). lol

In 2024, I feel like we should have the power to create images that aren't fuzzy, overcompressed, and hard to see messes, yet here we are.

even in sourcery, the one that controls the domain has the biggest fuckery.
I feel like this is more "how we feel we get perceived by others" moreso.
I try and perceive all the members of my team as, well, my team. I heavily appreciate everyone busting their assess off and contributions.
However, there are folks on each layer that do actually treat others like this and I think we can all agree those people suuuuck.

Gosh the QA column is depressingly accurate for shitty game companies.
The best thing to take away from this meme isn't "lol QA dumb" or "lol Designers eat paint" it's "fuck, what kind of toxic asshole legitimately feels this way about their coworkers" and yea, they exist - I've met them. Don't be one of those assholes.
The "qa as seen by dev" pic should be this Jessie meme.
The QA as seen by QA pic should be this Dr strange meme.
The entire sys admin column is so on point!
I was a sysadmin, once....Not for long.
As a sysadmin, I concur. Though the Neo panel in the bottom right should have also been another middle finger. If not that, then the Curb Your Enthusiasm meme where he's like "Fuck you, and I'll see you tomorrow" lol.
A fellow sysadmin, I thought we went extinct. I had to pivot to “infrastructure engineer” but it’s basically the same thing nowadays.
I have two weeks left as a sysadmin and I'm transitioning to development. My experiences in sysadmin are a big reason I got in the door with little coding experience. A lot of devs don't have an in depth knowledge about computers outside of programming, and knowing that extra stuff can certainly raise the ceiling.
My position is still called sysadmin shrugs
Job titles in IT don’t mean anything these days.
In particular, the term “engineer” has been butchered beyond recognition.
Wait so you’re telling me I’m NOT an engineer?
Agreed. I usually say developer because I view engineers as people who do actual engineering. I’m more of a plumber who fits pipes (pieces of software) together.

Are you licensed by the state? There's your answer!

My first job was as an “engineer”.
I spent most my time resetting passwords and setting up Outlook…
Digital archaelogist here.
Warm greetings to you from the Customer Success Evangelist.
That sounds like an actual job title, that works alongside a React Ninja. What do you do, exactly?
Oh, that isn't my actual title, I just wanted to mix together a pair of the more ridiculous trends.

Not quite extinct, but endangered.
Thankfully there's been a recent trend of companies pulling back out of the cloud because reality set in and they're neither saving money nor getting a better experience than they had with their on-prem solutions.
So, if that trend holds, we'll hopefully go from endangered to merely threatened.
Keep up the good fight my friend. We shall rise again.
Rise again you shall, from the ash of the burning sky.
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
