How to get started?

Most companies put associates on "salary" instead of paying by the hour. Used to be, my short weeks were 80 hour weeks and some every reach 120 hours in a single week, then add in the next weeks 80 hours or so and you have 200 hours of IT work in a 2 week period and nothing but a paycheck to show for it.

sound like being your own boss also. wait till you see all the unpaid hours you have to out in. like when i have to drive out to cals to qouote prices on a boat only to get no yes or no untill i call back in a week to find they went with another bid.
and i hear you on kids theese days. they all feel there entitled and dont have to pay there dues. ::)

OMG... You just reminded me of what I left behind.  Sooooooo glad to be out of that.  Gimme a rounded out stainless screw any day of the week.  I'll have at it with my angle grinder  ;D
