Well... 4 years ago I was making about 13K a year doing Cisco, Microsoft and Unix for Uncle Sam. I say if the people are willing to leave the Networking field due to job dissatisfaction, all the better for me. That sounds great for my future, but I really don't believe it will happen in significant enough a number to be a silver lining in my bank account. Leaving networking for Real Estate. ok.. switching back to Unix and still making great money. Good Lord. What a great life it is to be able to do that. My frame of reference must just be so dramatically different from a lot of the other's here. I don't understand what all the griping is about. I read a quote in an article the other day that just rings totally true to me. "Nobody is worth $200,000 a year. NOBODY. " If you can get it, more power to you. But if you were getting that or $100,000 a year and suddenly you can't and the only thing you can get is a 70K or 80 K job... Even in another area.. That's astounding to me that you would be so upset . But maybe it's why you made that kind of money and I never have. You believe you can and I'm smiling all the way to the bank with less. I guess the picture all depends on the angle you are viewing it from.
