While running cable above the ceiling, you fall into a dead space between the walls and are unable to escape. Your piteous cries for help go unheard. It isn't until your dead body starts to decompose that you're found.

A company employee downloads multiple viruses to his computer along with his movies. The viruses spread to other company computers. Looks like you'll be spending your weekend at work, hunting down viruses and scrubbing Mr. Too-Cheap-for-Netflix's computer clean.

You work for a mid-sized school district in Texas. Nothing exciting ever happens, unless a student decides to get creative with one of the campus computers.

You run an on-call system that's a masterwork of efficiency and beauty. No one outside of IT and engineering seems to care...but, to the twenty employees in these two departments, you are a deity.

Your years of experience in systems administration get you hired by one of the largest tech companies on the planet. You make a six-figure salary, travel all over the world to consult with your employer's customers, and can count on having a job for as long as you want one.
