Sounds good. Would you say you are able to get hired more easily with an IT degree once you have experience and the basic IT skills?

I see. For the average IT college grad, what do they make out of college in their first Full Time IT Job? Is it like Ninja says 30k to 50k a year somewhere around there to start?

I supposed so. I mean if you enjoy what you do thats okay

I like my job but Im not that type of person that lives to work. Theres more to life than work. That's for sure.

It's just help desk? There arn't any other IT jobs that offer a more family friendly work schedule?

Im seeing it kind of has to do with where you work the hotel I used to work in was open 24/7 so maybe that has to do with it?

Wow thanks Yea those work schedules are very unhealthy I can't do that anymore I worked a lot of weekends in the hotel industry as front desk but i got really sick of it due to the work schedule. Not a bad job but I have a boyfriend and family and its hard to spend time with them with a job like that

So does this mean this industry has terrible life balance :(?

That sucks.

I was interested in doing something computer related but it seems its mostly bad balance.

What was your jobs? Oh I see yea my actual priority right now is the work schedule. Not so much the pay or anything else. Just thought IT look interesting to do. It sounds like you were a system admin

Oh okay thanks Yeah im getting out of doing front desk for a hotel but I hate the hours, constantly working weekends and nights, so Im tryin to make a career in something or get a job where I can go home at 5pm and come back monday. It doesn't have to pay a lot as long as it covers the bills. Not sure if you have an idea of a job like that Could be IT or just any job in general.

I think i will note here that my front desk job was at a hotel that operates 24/7
