Hey guys
I am in a bit of a dilemma at the moment in regards to my income – or lack of it moreso…
Though I am young in the field of IT (19) I do bring quite a substansial amount of technical experience to my job. I am a one support tech for three sites and several independent computer applications; and since I have been here I have had to overhaul and establish new policies regarding security and stability. I have successfully implemented and configured many applications like MSUS, MSISA and MSSBE 2000 which were previously untouched. Since I have been around; all systems have been relatively happy and production has increased – having a local support tech does pay off afterall.
I also run several processes to keep our 3 seperate dynamic information (inventory stocklist) up to date on a daily basis. My workload is huge – I work 43 hour weeks and I am on call the rest of the time. My holidays I have been called in to fix major network hassles (nice going away present :p)
Which brings me to my problem… My moral is at an all time low and my stress is at a constant all time high. I am very skilled at my job but naturally do not enjoy it 100%. I feel obligated to stick where I am due to my knowledge and constant reliance…
Is it worth being in such a situation for just $10.52 AUD an hour? Technically I am still a full time temp but I could probably get more $$ stacking shelves at the supermarket
Any thoughts?
