HTRegz, this might not help your cause...

Everyone in my program seems to think they'll end up working for hosting companies or ISPs and I want them to realize that basically every field has networking people in it. I was wondering where some of you work and what you do in your job.
I am presently unemployed and essentially broke. As of late, I have been in my barn working on my custom 89 Camaro ( my baby ) I have been into electronics and the service trade. I was a a TV Technician from '84 to '92...I began a stab at my own computer retail store, but the town I live in was\is very technically challenged and as a result my biz had to fold... At this point I went to work at a turkey farm down the road from my house as foreman. There, I developed a computerized management system to practically automate the processes of administering drugs and supplements into the feed and water systems, cooling and ventilation automation that used the temperatue monitored throughout the barns to control fans, heaters, and vent louvers. I installed terminals in various places around the farm so the workers and inspectors, etc... could retrieve data such as how many tons of feed was used for a given aount of time, administered medicines, etc... I did my job so well the owner decided it would be to his advantage to let me go and hire 3 kids to just out of high school , who's combined wages were less than what i got. After that I worked as an RV (Recreational Vehical) technician, here I worked mainly on electrical systems, all the while I was tutoring my boss in what I was very good at...I was soon let go. Since then I have built the networks at 2 different ISP's and "let go" after they got running smoothly...

If it wearn't for bad luck...
