But all my other position were temp to perm, so by the time it was perm time, I showed them I knew my shiat so ended up getting good pay.

But get your associate for sure, and IT also relies on years of experience.
i don't plan to work in huge compaines..i wanna work for the school systems..get paid good, do 8-5 every day and sometimes have the entire weekend off...besides with my other career which is 85% complete, my CDL (commercial drivers licenses) i could drive a truck, and make good money..but again thats my backup career, its not something i wanna do now. But its a bouns that I have it tho.
