Are you guys hard up or what? This has got to be the stupidist waste of data space I have seen in a whiile. Dave Barry is NOT funny, and obviously is a complete moron when it comes to computers.....sheesh!!!! Get w/it/. post something informative, and not so freaking lame.
I guess what I don't understand is when indicate that you're 19, and then you mention that "I have 5 years industry experience and a few certifications."
That wold have made you 14 when you began working. Were you working for your parents?
I agree as well. I love IT....always have. I went to a four year university....only stayed for 3 years....became burnt out on math....ugh!
I was 20 when I took my first year of college.....I was way too young, and not disiplined enough. I went back into college at age 34....went another 2 years....all in CS. I've been toying around w/computers for only 7 years.....everything from web design, to hardware......I really enjoy it. I have never had a problem getting an IT job.....I don't have a degree....I have experience....and to a employer....that's what matters. I would rather have someone who has "real world" experience in the IT industry....than some young kid fresh out of college w/NO experience at all.
Right now I work for one of the University of California campuses.....and am paid very well.......no degree......only experience got me this position...

M$ has been outsourcing most of the customer service for it's Xbox... The article if you read it...states this... "Microsoft uses outside companies, including Harte-Hanks of San Antonio, Texas, and Sykes Enterprises in Tampa, Florida, to handle Xbox customer service. Xbox repairs are handled by Solectron of Milpitas, California."
