Nah, not right now.

I'm almost to the magical 7 year number. And it helps that I'm a hybrid admin... I work Unix and Windows. I don't have any certifications... but I can manage.

The thing that ruined it was all the "tech" schools pumping out CS graduates... and basically flooding the market with crappy inexperienced labor... which caused everything to blow up... it also didn't help that the people in the it field at the time... managed to be pretty ------- stupid and charge over the top for their services that weren't worth as much as they were charging.

right now it looks like she's kinda settled on "Web Developer" or some "international importing/exporting logistics thing" program that available at one of the more local colleges. Both of them seem to be alright, and at the end of the day it has to be sothing that she can enjoy doing (I know that was said). Lots of good sugestions though.

I might take some of the ideas myself..... Im thinking Hollywood Squares, or probably lottery if that dosent pan out, ha ha ha.

Probably should have finished college

Unless you live in a town that has stopped selling homes. I guess you could do service work all day long, but that has to be the shittiest part of the job. There are so many unemployed plumbers, electricians and HVAC works in my town right now. It's sad.
