Heck I get that from other sysadmins from small shops and they boggle that I don’t know linux/unix that well if at all or anything about switches/routers outside of what they do. I was working at this really really huge place. There was more than enough work for 20 admins to wrangle HALF the tickets/alerts for the windows boxes never mind free time to build the new ones or install the application software because the application folk didn’t have full access to the server, etc.
ETA or do and real automation scripting (and if we did it was basic stuff and then handed over to a team that would really make it nice and probably just run on a user request off a web page), or mess with the domain controllers, or work with exchange/share point, etc.
