Yes.

Consider the old joke, "what do you call the medical student that graduated bottom of his class? 'Doctor'".

Same thing applies to sysadmins and IT. Sure there's plenty of skilled people working in facilities out of bumfuck, but also consider how few people want to work in the low-paid, low-respect IT jobs.

Those roles are often filled by the apathetic, mid-skilled, and close in proximity. They're connecting shit to the internet because their boss wants more data points.
