Why Inappropriate Gifts Desk Plates for Sysadmins
Sysadmin life is invisible when you're succeeding and blamed when anything fails. You're on-call for problems you didn't create. These stickers get the ops life.
Some gifts play it safe. These gifts look at the line, acknowledge it, and take one deliberate step over it. They're for workplaces where people actually like each other and have developed the kind of friendship where boundaries are more like suggestions. Not for the faint of heart, the overly professional, or anyone who's ever unironically said 'let's circle back.'
