I must be really bored, digging up 10 year old threads, but I figured it would be interesting to see if some of you guys who answered this thread are still working in the same field, same jobs as you were ten years ago. Obviously some of you guys were still in college. Just wondering how you guys are doing in terms of your professional careers now?

Back in May of '04 (when this thread first was posted), I was in the middle of finishing up my bachelor in Information Systems Tech. I was actually unemployed at the time, living at my parent's house. I can see why I never answered this thread back then, lol! What a loser, hahaha!

But now, I can say that things have drastically changed in ten years time. I moved states, and now employed as a System Administrator for one of the local colleges. I've been in the IT field for nearly 10 years. Haven't gotten rich doing it, but it's a fun field. It's not as stressful working for a college as it would be for the private sector, but certainly I'd make more money in the private sector. Sometimes though, the money isn't worth it.

Anyways, looking forward to hearing how things are going with you guys, professionally.
