I find programming fun :p

Im interested in graphics, but a bit unsure of what the job market is like.

I think they need a tv series called Helpdesk, cross over The Office with Office Space. Show all the stupid questions they get and the pranks helpdesk pull. It would be great.

That's ok, some people still think only kids watch cartoons. I think with enough office politics you'd have a hit, say a bit of espionage with hidden cameras one other departments and blackmail etc, usual office stuff.

I would consider becoming an IT teacher, but I just dont like todays students. The Curriculum in NSW seriously needs to be reworked, IT needs to be a bigger part of the education system.
Why teach kids? don't you think adults need education too? :)

There too old, there cause is lost. Kids are still impressionable, mold the minds of the future. hehe

Adults pay better and they behave in class and actually want to learn :) Plus you can crack some pretty good jokes without having to think twice. Also you can be seen out and about with your students outside of class and not worry about being labelled something obscene.

Kids might be impressionable but you will never beat the power of TV and peer pressure.

True for a class on average, but exceptions usually exist - which is, I think, what keeps many teachers going.

Majoring in Software Development, Information Systems and Computer Science. Hoping to become programmer and then move up the ranks to project manager
Oh how so much changes in a year. Right now, not really keen on the whole business things - either programming or managing. Looking more at the scientific aspects, probably leaning more towards my maths than comp sci degree actually. A combination of both would be great.
