Guess I should throw my 2 cents in. First IT job was working for a union here in Sacramento. 18 users, Netware 4.11 network, 1 server, about half the users were still using Windows 3.11. 24k/year. From there went to private industry for $42k/year. Got downsized there, went to the school district where I ended up around $47k/year. Now, I work for the state, making ~$55k. I've got a little over 10 years experience, have held CNE (4.11 and upgrade to 5), MCSE (NT4). Gave up the cert path after that. I'm about halfway towards a BS degree in management, and not sure if I'm going to finish that anytime soon.

When I first started out I was making $22k taking care of 30+ servers, 5 locations, and working 80+ hours a week to keep up with it all. I refer to this stage of life as the "balding period". After 2 years of doing that, I had to beg for a raise to $30k.

(yippee) I like to think that at my age (25) making that much in Alabama, I'm not doing half bad. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Greene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 8:56 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: IT Salary Survey Another college drop-out here.
