Do you enjoy it?

Overall, yes. Supervising people in a small southern company is not easy, but I like the cutomer and technical aspects of the job.

Did you go to college?

I earned my degree, that is, graduated in June of this year.

I got into this field when an FCC license determined who got hired. Times changed and, for various reasons, I went back to school and LOVED IT! I am sorry it's over.

In general: you will go farther, have more opportunities, and be taken more seriously with a degree. Get a degree. I have a friend with a Geology degree (Master's). He worked in geology 5 years and for the past 25 years has been working in I.T. Just this summer, he changed jobs to an administrative position in a hospital - all because he has a good track record and a Master's in Geology.

Get a degree!
