In the past few months I've begun to kind of regret my decision to get into IT. There are a bunch of reasons for this, but the biggest one has been being naive. I always thought that once I had the degree (and some certs) that I would be set. Only to truly find that I am doing the same thing I was doing prior to the degree. I really dislike doing end user support and at this point it's the only thing I get calls for. It's actually getting me depressed since about 90% of what I do involves people complaining and bad mouthing the department I work in.
I use to have a passion for technology, but I feel like that is all gone at this point. I knew I'd need experience before getting a security related position, but I thought I'd be doing a lot less support. I've slowly loss my drive to study for certs and just want to come home to veg (and try to block out the crappy days I continue to have). What do you guys do when you hit a slump? Sorry for the whining, but had to get it out
