JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

Pay is actually good. Education isn't HEAVILY required (I am a sys/network admin at a decent sized nonprofit with a small campus and have 0 IT certifications and a Bachelor's in Biology).

People often don't know what you do so there's little amount of overhead micromanaging and such -- your boss oftentimes CANNOT do your job, something that isn't exclusive to IT, but uncommon in other fields.

You can go anywhere, every city in the world has an IT infrastructure that someone supports.

Sometimes your job is waiting for something to break -- free time.

You can game at work.
