And that's the easiest part. If I could just work, I can deal with the users. The way we are managed is the worst part of my job. NON-IT people should not be IT managers.

You'd be surprised... with the economy hit and with the overabundance of tech-trained people here in CA, I had to take a minimum wage job for 6 months just to barely pay the bills.

Minimum wage with a BA

Now I'm making 10/hr... and I was making more doing less while I was in still in school. On the other hand, I'm taking a hit on purpose right now to get experience, because I have enough qualifications that, after I prove myself at this job, I should be able to make at least $25/hr starting

yeah, and right now, minium wage is at the lowest it's ever been, adjusted for inflation...

(Though, minimum wage is 6.75 here in CA I think... not as bad as some other states)
