I was "The IT Guy", with a title of "Manager, Information Systems", for a small trade-show company. In the beginning, I had 40 hours of work/week keeping everything working, and all the users happy. 15 years later, things got so reliable, or migrated to phones and the cloud, that I essentially just showed up and waited for things to break, with about 50 users! They outsourced the job, which was smart on their part, and they haven't looked back. For a while after that, I made gears, mostly bevel gears, until Long Covid took me out of the work force, and put me in the precariat. I don't see systems administration as sufficiently time consuming to be a full time job anymore.
