The same holds true for administrators. In EVERY job there are people who love the job, people who hate the job (minority who make it miserable for everyone), and people who do the job because it's all they know.

The majority of administrators are most likely quite capable people who enjoy their work, but the minority who don't are the ones who make the news.

As I've told people time and again, if you don't like your job, find another one and stop making it miserable for everyone else.
