Chris, you know I mean this with all due respect, but you need to get out more. The 5 minutes away part is always a variable, but the rest of the "perks" are (IME) standard tech offerings. Someone else seemed to think that a new laptop and cellphone, along with benefits and vacation, were big "perks", IMO those are just the standard offerings. >Does anyone have any experience with hiring, such that they could tell me how screwed I am if I ever leave my current job, >since I dropped out of college to take it? At the moment, I'm quite happy, and planning on resuming studies >(although not full time) relatively soon to finish a degree, but if I were to quit my job today and start looking, > how difficult would it be to move into some IT or programming (mostly web) position given a lack of degree? As I've told you before, I think that you're giving up the ability to earn more than you currently do. Especially with all the women you have to support ;) I've known plenty of places that hire without a college degree. Hell *I* have no college degree and I'm a hiring manager... If you weren't so hung up on the 5 minutes away part (and was willing to travel a bit) I could probably make a spot for you on my team early next year... _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
