The uninitiated admire people who have mastered a lingo and understand an area that is beyond them. It is not just a matter of "going back to university," it is a matter of growing up in the wrong generation, of not being able to adapt quickly to new information and situations. A matter of not being able to compete in a society that is increasingly geared toward the "control of information." I am not being dramatic here--my friend who is doing IT in the school system in Canada tells me how he has taken entire computers back to his home to work on in the summer holidays so the tech-guy who is somewhere down the totem pole from him will not get access to it, so when classes start in September he will not be out of a job. You have a specialized skill which, working in the system, you perhaps tend to overlook. Keep writing about the IT industry!Paul's Fareast Musingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11041260070463695920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13588125.post-1136572315189360172006-01-06T20:31:00.000+02:002006-01-06T20:31:00.000+02:00Thank you!
