i kinda looking for just a weekend job, not an it job at some big company yet > tbh it's not that impossible to have both, a guy I know had a weekend job as IT at DTZ, he didn't have any degree he just knew his stuff, iirc you're in belgium right? 'cause I'm too

IT like, desktop tech support?

@shadowedROM You know, most of the time it's what they got in mind because they always got told "if you got X diploma you will earn X money" and then they will do it not because they will like it, but because they will have money.

included but not only

You're better off trying to get a NOC job at a datacenter

@Rey yeah I agree that is not the correct message to give to people, since they should be gearing themselves for a whole lifetime of learning

it's not my stuff so I don't really know the details but I knew he was also doing maintenance on their servers and shit like that

Windows server? Like exchange, active directory, etc?

I really don't know, sorry m8

Don't apologize to me 😃 you should find out

And try them at home on VMs and see if you actually like it

But tbh that's not really a job that will exist in 15 years

well it's been like 4 years and it doesn't really interest me that much, as I said it's not my stuff, I'm doing physics

Physics is a great foundation of study

You know matlab right

yeah

I'm mostly using mathematica though kek

no bully

Don't waste your time with IT.

You're worth more than that

I'm not interested in IT at all m8, I was just giving my 2 cents for the other guy

Ah ok

Right

Don't waste your time with IT.
You're worth more than that > w-why though?

Sorry I'm a little disoriented heh not feeling well

no worry

take care laddie

because traditional IT is being consolidated by managed services and infrastructure as code

An exchange server is a liability

Nobody wants to deal with it anymore

Many CIOs/CTOs are going to make the choice to jump to azure hosted apps in the coming years

damn, it must feel bad being in IT

The IT staff of yesteryear will seem as distant as being a human operator at a telephone switchboard

By being in IT you always have the possibility to learn more

There's always room at the table for smart people willing to pearn

Learn

You just can't get hung up on a certain way of doing things

The flip side is being a bullshit artist politician

But please don't become one of those. I hate them.

You sound like a guy I knew when I was in internship

Is that a bad thing or a good thing lol
