Re: Working in IT is a magical, mysterious, and wonderful task

You are missing the point.

There are not one, but two oldest professions which exists from before humans had money, trade, etc. They are "sexual services" and the priesthood.

There is money to be made in making chants about things being magical, mysterious and wonderful. People have been doing so since the dawn of time and continue to do it. It motivates the rank and file and gets the village shaman some trinkets from the powers that be which benefit from the results.

So instead of bitching, join the joyful DevOps psalms and chants. If you do not the shaman may report you to the ones paying his salary.
