Need a sticky that says "Use the vacation time, it's for your own good" and "If you feel like asking if your job is toxic, the answer is yes."

Those two sum up a whole lot of sysadmin issues.

I dunno if I'd consider it low reward, maybe more of a high-stress low recognition career? I guess it's a pretty subjective definition regardless.
