Your never too old to work in IT!

 

No you're not, however don't expect to just walk into DB administration if you haven't done it before.
Small steps lead to giant leaps.

I know guys older than you who went on to become dba's.

 

^^ This ^^.

 

thanks everyone for your replys, thats just what i wanted to hear thats really motivated me to study now. ill get my A+ first then take if from there.

 

Good Luck with the study.

 

You can work in IT pretty much between the time when you stop wetting yourself and the time when you start doing it again...

 

What happens if someone is incontinent?

 

Pffft. Some of the best techs I know wet themselves on a daily basis.

 

You can work in IT in any country.

Oh, wait,


Probably best to keep them out the server room.

 

i'm glad theres no age limit but personally i noticed theres discrimination when come to hiring...

 

Dude, you're not too old! As long as you keep up with what's new and make sure you are experienced in modern technology, you'll be fine!
