    My industry could abandon most technology and we’d be fine but things would just take longer to do 🤷‍♀️but everyone I know still appreciates and respects IT anyway

    Most people just use their computers to accomplish other things in life and then go about their business without developing actual computer skills. The reason yall in IT is cause you were obsessed w computers enough to truly learn how to use them.

    You could always learn how to code an awful system that requires IT support if helping people print and plug in cables isn’t rewarding enough

      You seem to think that desktop support is the only IT job that exists, which is incorrect.

      I work in Infosec and my job isn’t helping users with computer illiteracy, but I can still get frustrated when people don’t know how to do basic tasks that their job requires.
