Toilet scrubbing is a prestigious job.

 Out of everyone else in this list, you are the only one capable of automating a method to clean the ceiling from the unheard horrors of "ceiling shit". How dare you dishonor these courageous heroes! They deserve a trophy for the shit they deal with!  IT administrators have a ego the size of the planet but lack the intelligence and funding to produce the magical content they keep promising.

Doesn't game programing require shitloads of math? At least if you're doing anything 3D.

That was the point, the only people who want the job are those who think the job is about playing games.

Only basic vector calculus and some numeric methods. Even /b/ can do it.

I want to become a system administrator. I'm good at networking, tinkering with systems (and I like both), but I suck at programming and am not a fan of it.

Is it a good position to go for? I'm also a lazy cunt and my ``script automation skills'' are pretty high.

You should learn to like it.

You sound like the standard sysadmin.  I was going to say "ideal" sysadmin, but those rare people are always going out of their way to be helpful, instead of just automating their jobs and watching porn 6 hours a day.

No sysadmins are ``automating their jobs'' because if they did they'd be out of a fucking job. backplate g/etgoe/s toilet scrub-sama

All require a degree, unless you want to be Toilet Scrubber.
