ticketing metrics and team metrics in general produce teams that are good 
at meeting those metrics.  most operational teams define their metrics in 
terms of things like closing tickets quickly and as a result they tend to 
not fix underlying problems (a difficult and time consuming thing to do, 
but which pays off much better than simply closing the same tickets over 
and over again every month/week/day/hour ad infinitum).

i've been thinking that having scrum meetings once a month where projects 
for the month are assigned storypoints and those are burned down and the 
rate of storypoint burndown could be tracked would give more incentive to 
getting projects completed as compared to just closing tickets all the 
time...   i'm not sure that all of scrum maps well on system 
administration, but that part might help...
