Got a full-time job...

[soundtest]

The IT market is in a sad state of affairs. The dot com explosion encouraged everybody and their imaginary friend to study IT and computer technical schools are still popping up faster than Tim Hortons in rural Canada. Every second person I meet is a web designer or IT specialist of some sort, and the market is just completely saturated. I bitched about working in tech support, but I was working next to people with their Masters in Computer Science or Software Engineering. Speaking of tech support, expect a lot of those jobs to be coming to Canada... I worked for Time Warner and they were slowly and quietly shifting their call centres either here or to India (although they received so many complaints from customers this trend might vanish). Why pay an American $15/hr when you can pay a Canadian $9-10 CDN/hr for the same job? Not that this helps RoG, but it's rough all over and you're definitely not alone... that's why I'm hiding out in school again until shit gets better OR the government or bank tells me to fuck off, then Tokyo here I come! :leech
