It's because of the things that you don't see the IT guy doing that your computer and network works as well as it does. You have already indicated that in your job you do things behind the scenes that may not be noticed.

From an IT standpoint myself; I didn't see Superflyer's post as saying he wanted to be recognized for his day to day job. He was saying that what many of us see and hear as people believing that we are simply an unnessesary expense. It's one thing to be oblivious to people behind the scenes who make stuff work. It's another to openly say that those people don't do anything because you don't see them do something.
