Anyone else feel this?

I noticed it before I got into IT, but it seems to have gotten worse.
EDIT: Great comments guys, and thanks. I don't feel so alone. :)
Careful they don't abuse you. Make your job description solid and make sure if they want to go outside it, they should pay you more. You are worth it.
Probably they abuse me a bit. I know I'm good at my job but I get imposter syndrome in my head sometimes. $100k a year isn't awful though. Sometimes I fantasize about dying and all the shit do and know and handle are lost and my coworkers can't figure shit out.
My last position had this problem. 'Silo's of knowledge'. We had a guy who could have retired yesterday who had so much institutional knowledge that when he left people were in such disarray. He was all, "I warned ya! You should have had me training people!"
But no one wants to learn anything beyond their tunnel vision job title.
You'd be surprised how many people have the drive and motivation to learn other things than their job.
