Techies Keen to Keep Jobs In the Family
Stony Stevenson writes "IT staff are 'overwhelmingly' happy to recommend their profession to their children, a survey has found. Three-quarters of nearly 1,000 IT professionals surveyed said that they would 'definitely recommend' a career in the business to their offspring. Around 70 percent also felt that their jobs are secure, and that they are expecting a salary increase next year. The survey also found that 86 per cent of respondents expect to move jobs voluntarily in the next three years."
You have this idea of how your child should be and what they should like, and then they shatter your dreams when they start playing sports and getting girlfriends.
They found 1,000 IT professionals that have offspring?
Damn_registrars has no butt-hole. Damn_registrars has no use for a butt-hole.
I'm part of that 75%.
I would unhesitatingly recommend a career in IT to my offspring, were I having kids.
Except that I don't want kids. So I would also unhesitatingly have a vasectomy, were I planning on having sex.
Except that this is Slashdot... So even the sex part is a pretty big stretch.
But if I were to hypothetically have sex, and if I were hypothetically not going to sterilize myself to prevent kids, and if I were hypothetically to have kids, then by all means, I'd be damned if I wasn't going to get at least some measure of revenge on 'em.
75% of IT professionals hate their children.
God invented whiskey so the Irish would not rule the world.
Well, if I were related to a guy with that much money, I'd like to keep him in the family as well!
