So I'm currently working as an IT intern for the summer. Been great, had a few kinks but other wise doing well. Actually I'm enjoying it, Its not to stressful and i have plenty of time to do my tasks at hand. My boss is cool and my coworkers are nice to me as well. So as all summer jobs come they must go. Except for this one, My boss just offered to keep me for seasonal (for sure) and possibly part time for school. Hells yeah.

Tech support is like the first step in all IT careers ever. There's at least 10 listings for it in your local newspaper and thousands if you go online.

Make resume --> mail everywhere ---> wait a week with your cell phone glued to your hand = job.

Much easier than getting B on iccup in fact.

Why not? They're all computer related and only a couple of classes sets each of them apart.

I SO ENVY YOU MAN!

Man, I always liked desktop support except that it was very stressful back then in my previous work.
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Not really. A degree > No degree, plus I get tuition waivers as well as a cushy 12$ an hour job on campus 20 hours a month. Its pretty win.

Edit: err its 20 hours a week, not month... just gonna leave that in there if someone read it before
