New and Exciting
I fell into the IT sector like most because of years of interest growing up. Ive been working on computers since I was in junior high and we had our first 286, mightve been even lower than that, its been a while. But I did Electronics Engineering and specialized in computers. Which turned out to be a great program because I did Web programming, C++ and VB programming, Electronic support and computer/network support on multiple platforms. Seems to be a high demand to have such a broad background these days.
I started working in the offshore oil and gas setting up networks and maintaining them for 6-8 weeks at a time and then tear them down and do it all over again 2-3 weeks later somewhere else. I did that for 7+ years til I got sick of the traveling. Now I work in the government sector designing databases and some programming. Big change let me tell you, not as fast paced and a lot less pressure, probably added 20 years to my life HAHAHA.....
