If that isn't enough, then I dunno what you need as further evidence.

It is all relative. I have a friend got a network manager job for a similar sized company. Spent every working hour putting out fires (service tickets). The situation improved when users at desktops were blocked from downloading and installing software or running utilities.
There were so many desktop users, and some were sharp enough to work around the lockouts. The service tickets persisted, but at a much lower level. My friend quit the job and moved onto a better life.
There are some fires you just can't put out.
