    just got offered my first IT job. It's a helpdesk job butthere is ome chance to do builds and bits of networking and they'll pay for at least an MCDST if not more...

    Downside is that it's only 2K more than I'm on now but it includes a half hour drive on the M£ to get there. Still it's a great start and after 6 months i'll be better prepared and more desirable to other places....

    Congratulations on the new job. The first job in IT usually has a few drawbacks but remember, it's just the first job. Get integrated, learn a lot and when you're ready to spread your wings a bit more, this job will look great on your CV. Cheers. :)

    The fact that you don't have to take a SMALLER salary is a bonus. Some people have to do that to get their foot in the door. So, congrats!
