This is just blue collar vs white collar work....that is how it is. You described my work life pretty well with that paragraph, the ins and outs of current corporate tech. Not to belittle you and other blue collar jobs at all, but it is just the different nature of the work. When shit hits the fan, it's up to me to do things like restore internet/tv for millions. One can't pick up what I do in a year of trying to swing it, it'll take a 10 year journey just to play at my current level.
