I bounce. All over. And do all kinds of consulting on the side or at the
last place as my job. Age 24 and my resume with a good deal of struggle
fits on 3 pages. I wants a lot more but some jobs just had to not show
up on there.

As far as a sabbatical I am currently on one due to some stuff. But not
working has been great, finally getting a chance to get those things
done that time has not allowed for. Would not think taking one from a
position like yours and coming back would really be an option. But you
could work to find the time to do something in parallel.

Subject: Sabbatical


Since I work at a .edu I get to watch faculty take sabbaticals to go to
great places, work in other peoples labs, explore new stuff, drink lots
of beer, etc. I'm wondering if anyone in the IT industry does this
(sabbatical, not the beer. I'm sure that is universal.) Using myself as
an example, I support a a small network with a couple of exchange
installs with a total of about 300 users and about 175 workstations, but
I would love to have experience with a large deployment, scripting and
building applications, etc. I'll never be able to get that here, but if
it was an option to take a sabbatical and work in industry for 6 months
or a year doing this it would be great. Just curious if anyone has ever
heard of this or done it. My impression is that bouncing from job to job
is the equivalent but I don't like that option very much.

Thanks,

jbh
