Linux Jobs

Here's a legitimate use for the list:

I used to post Linux job listings here when I got them from recruiters.  
Lately, though, I haven't gotten any.

For a while they all wanted Linux + Containers + Cloud _experience_ - 
often more experience than availability of the technology allowed.

The few I get these days are for Windows admins who know Linux.  It 
seems like we've reversed the trend of Linux specialists, and are going 
back to "the receptionist can change the backup tapes".

I've also seen a few postings that were looking for unreasonable scope.  
Clearly an operation had been pared down to the point where one person 
was covering three different jobs - and I'll bet that person burned out 
and left, which is why the position is open.

Lately, though, even those listings have dried up.

Anybody else seeing job listings for plain ol' Linux Admins lately?
