I think one of the best things about IT is that you can use it as a springboard into other industries. If you're interested in a field, any field, take your IT job there and learn things from the inside. I learned a ton about television broadcasting, auto manufacturing, and police work by doing very large, enterprise wide solution implementations for companies and governments in those areas. It's a great way to understand what day-to-day work is like and having IT experience means you'll always be valuable should you decide to move into those fields.
