how many peeps can say
they really like/love their jobs? so many people I know, outside of IT, dread going into work. most IT folk I know love their jobs, as long as they are getting fairly compensated for what they actually do.
I also am self taught... was a bean counter for many years. my month was laid out with deadlines that had to be met. the only change would be if a deadline hit on the weekend. day in and day out, week to week, I knew what had to be done. in IT, every day is a challenge. you think you have your day planned out well then something unexpected happens, throwing your schedule into the abyss... that is what I love.
so I have to add my #11 - the diversity and challenges that present themselves daily. every day is different than the last.
and #12 would have to be making fun of end users doing stupid things! heheheh
