Another Wonderful Monday
I am sure that many of you would think that saying something like that deserves a blow to the face, and you know, you are probably right. Something about getting back to the grind as an underpayed, undervalued worker in the IT industry makes you want to cringe when you wake up in the morning. There were many of us that thought when we were paying for our schooling that it was ok because our futures would be secure PLUS we were doing something that we enjoyed. You really can not ask for more than that. Instead many of us found ourselves working in IT departments in various companies that don't pay, and don't care. It became more and more evident that to go anywhere with IT you had to have multiple skills.
If you ever look at some of the job requirments for some of these positions you wonder how somebody can retain all of the information that they want you to know. You will have no problem finding a job in the New York metro area if you know ten programing languages plus can administer all versions of windows and 10 flavors of *nix. I am not against additional schooling to take on new skills but sometimes that is just not possable and the entry level positions do not pay well. I do hear rumblings about the tech job market getting a little better and as my years in the industry increase then maybe chances will get better that I can find something to suite me well. I wish everyone out there searching for that better position the best of luck!
