OT: Why are so many of us in IT? Coincidence? I think not!

[d0cdave]

Sweeet LB has/had a really good CS department. I graduated in '04. Had to do it with afternoon / evening classes. I never had to take a class before 4pm. They really do cater to people with full time jobs.

I'm not in IT....

your classified to fit in one of these 3:

Nerd- :reading:
Dork- :wildone:
Geek- :strooper:

I'm not in IT, but now I understand why I can't get anything done by our IT department... they are all reading Reefcentral. At least they are goofing off for a good reason, though.

 

[SirLight1337]

I am also currently in the IT field.

Storage Area Networking, Fibre channel gear, and a little webpage.
I agree in that the IT guys take it to the internet and can get away with surfing RC while at work.

As long as you are studying to be a geek... then yes it counts.

Any other CSULB Comp Sci Grads out there?

Because we all had lots of extra money 5 years ago to start tanks with. That and being above the proxy helps... amazing what you can learn while being paid to occupy a desk.

I am LAN/WAN/Security consultant.

I concentrate my work at Cisco gears as well as Microsoft products. I manage network globally. It is amazing how you can communicate using Internet.

My tank is just a way for me to see the Natual thing that the creator has created. I always amaze on how colorful and beauty the corals and fishes are. There are really the work of great creator.

[russ49merc]

[noschmo]

Extraordinarily fascinating question to ponder?

 

[coralGoodie]

Maybe because we have a lot of patience compared to other professionals and we like challenges and excitement a lot

 

[slavearm]

I love a challenge... for example... I just got the wife to agree to a 45G prop tank next to the main display.... mwahahahahaha... took me 4 weeks and a chandellier.
