Maybe it's just involuntary reflex.

I met someone who said he works as admin and complained he can't find a job in the town he lives (he commutes more than 4 hours a day). I couldn't understand that, but later in conversation I learned that he's a windows admin. Then I had the eyebrow rising involuntary reflex and everything became clear to me. Windows admin skills are kinda useless in town where most companies can't afford to use MS solutions where good open source alternatives exists, let alone employ many windows admins.



Small-town businesses usually do use Windows, except where they're hoping their ancient DOS solution doesn't die.


Not in my country. And if they do they don't have money to hire administrator. Son in law of the owner can usually take care of things well enough.
