Hey can anyone help out a new guy?

[jsd]

Seems like you could say that about pretty much any field. I've heard a lot of good things about IT as a field. But your right I might be rushing into it. Whats your advice with then, find a lower level IT job and see if its something I would like to do? Is it really as boring as others on this thread have said? Any advice helps

This is hard to answer because I don't know your current background with computers, your skill level, your enjoyment of tech and digging in to it all. If you're not already a bit fascinated by it all and a bit of a geek for it, it might be a long, boring road.

I wouldn't say drop everything to get a help desk job, but at some point you're going to need some experience under your belt, degree or no degree.

I completed my culinary apprenticeship at the Grand Traverse Resort. I lived in resort housing on the bay with the other apprentices. I spent the summer of 1989 till spring thaw in 1990. I've never lived anywhere else where taking a snowmobile to work was considered completely normal lol. Enjoyed the Cherry Festival, and spent a lot of nights hanging at the dunes - didn't run into Kid Rock, at least not that I remember ha ha.

I give you props, worked as a line cook briefly and it can be stressful. Anyway I know that Resort, its pretty nice, four stars I believe. Yea Sleeping Bear Dunes near Traverse city are amazing as well, pretty much that whole corner of the state around the Leelanau Peninsula is beautiful and can be a lot of fun. By the way its funny you mentioned "not running into Kid Rock," my dad years back actually did lol. He was at a car show in St. Ignace Michigan, randomly ended up talking to him there, he didnt really know who he was though(doesnt listen to his music). Apparently Kid Rock is really into classic cars.
