OK - interesting scientific poll time here.

I (for one) am interested in the board's collective 'feel' for the state of I.T. these days.

I need to have the ability to vote twice. I think they'll always need help and we need to throw everyone out of office to repopulate the private sector with morons!

Now Dan, you really shouldn't pick on AOL users. (see my sig ;))

After 6 months of unemployment, applying for jobs that I could do blind folded, and not even making the first cut, I tend to say it SUCKs and I'm going to have to look outside the field apparently to find a job. :(

we need to throw everyone out of office to repopulate the private sector with morons!

ROFL! :D

I work with morons (in the IT sense) every day.

They can not survive long without us.

Without the morons I'd spend most of the day napping at my desk ;).. so I guess we need them.

Come on guys, be nice to the (friggin idiot) end user. I tell you I get so annoyed with the stupidity of some of the people here at work, but without them I would not have a job. So idiot users are my job security! LOL

hardware and software will continue to get more technically difficult while most of "them" will continue to become stoopider

There will alsways be some room for those who can make things work for those who 'can not', so I think things will get better.

My job has helped take all of the fun out of computers for me right now. I need a project and a little motivation so I can get interrested again.

I work with moron's.. otherwise I wouldn't have enough computers to run SETI !! :Q :) :)

MORE POWER!! LOL!!

Seriously though, I.T. People are hard to find up here; the cool weather (-30 at times) drives them away, but
hey! It keeps the CPU's cold! ;) (Another mark for D.C.)

Ray,

You should of PM'd me about 6 months ago... I great paying job I know you could handle just got
taken by some dude who was a IT dood from an area casino. Word has it, he was accepted at $65,000/yr.

This isn't Orlando (or Kansas...Toto) but that's some good pay up here!!

I would if I had another machine or two. After I brought up my ecc2 score though. It helps when you make sure the client flushes. I had been wondering why I hadn't been producing much for the past couple of weeks :p
