Musings

In 1983, I wrote one of my first attempts at fiction: a day in the life of a system administrator. My intent was to provide examples of what system administrators of UNIX systems typically did: boot the system, check logs, solve problems with printers or full disks, update software, and back up the system. These tasks didn’t require a full-time position as there was just one system to manage. That was my vision at the time, and you can see my story at [1], scanned from the documentation I wrote.
