I currently am a technician repairing and programming credit card terminals. It may soon evolve into something bigger.

My dream job would actually be writing code. But only because I am terrible at it and I admire people that can do it.

[sixone]

I spent most of my day trying to get around Microsoft Exchange's limit of 250 recipients for an email that needed to go to 2,500 people.

I send a hearty "fuck you" to Constant Contact, Outlook, Exchange, and Word/Mail Merge. Despite your dismal failure to provide assistance, I got 'er done in less than an hour.

And then I wrote down how I did it, so that next year will be easy.

My dream job while in college was server admin. I had done it during the summer as a student and really liked it.

When I graduated I started off at the help desk for a few years then moved on to server admin, but at a customer site. The job itself was nice but the environment was really poisoned. I left it when I saw a NOC position come out, it's more telecommunication than IT, but I learned it, and enjoy it now, been almost 2 years.

I like playing with server stuff at home but realized it's a totally different beast in the corporate world. Too much politics.

Agreed, there is a lot of politics and red tape around systems administration in the corporate/government world. Before my current job I worked in a helpdesk for a large government contractor. I talked to the network admins regularly and even they hated it. I feel like as a tier 2/3 tech support analyst for a small company I have more freedom to learn and experiment than many sys admins do in their corporate walled garden.

 

[JimmiG]

Tech support, mainly tier 2. Want to move into more of the sysadmin kind of thing in the future.
