The future is bleak, but not because there are too few jobs and a market flooded with skilled techs. It’s a market flooded with worthless techs.
These clowns lie about their abilities, worry only about how much they make (which is never enough for them and way too much in reality) but never concern themselves with increasing their knowledge and to top it off: provide *CRAP* customer service. You’d think it would be a no brainer, but nobody wants to be the bad guy and voice their complaints, so their managers are none the wiser. If another IT guy complains, well, he/she is a troublemaker and therefore must be killed. (Our admin wont even clean the filthy servers that were rained on when our roof leaked (looks like mud), even after being told multiple times that it is corrosive to electronic components….4 weeks and counting….and he still has a job? Eph that!
As a 12 year network and security admin…I’m looking elsewhere.
