Being a Doctor was my dream as a child - I grew up to be too lazy, but when sharing this with a Doctor whose server I was working on, he asked about how many years it took to develop the sort of skills required to be a consultant/system administrator.. I thought about it and then said with amazement, about 7 years, but then active practice for the rest of your life to really have it sussed.. he just smiled back with a knowing nod.
"Just fixing different beasts, really", he said.
That made me feel good.. but if I was in some third world country, I know I'd prefer to meet your uncle the Doctor than some smelly server geek.
