Looking at possibly moving from a Systems Admin role (network, IoT, server VMs, just about anything computer related) to a Network Security and Firewall Engineer role that seems like it would mainly be network/firewall tickets and occasional projects. Looking for insights into day to day of a Network Security and Firewall Engineer. If you've been in this role or similar what does a day or week look like and did you get bored?

Since my current role is so ubiquitous I am worried about getting bored of the repetition or lack of challenge in a possibly more siloed role. The new position would be $10-$20 more an hour so seems like the better move just don't want to get stuck in something I may not like.

Does anyone have experience or insights to working for the city IT team? They have a firewall position I’m looking into and looking at glass door and other ratings the city seems like a headache.

Think I have a hot side slab leak, going to try and have it rerouted through the attic. It’s pretty close to my water heater but has anyone had to do this recently? Trying to get a rough idea the cost to reroute the one leaking line.
