The biggest downside is the company I work for which is unorganized as crap, i.e. no work for two weeks than suddenly a 70h week because everybody needs something
I have debt from current employer, I wish I could just gamble like it

Sounds like a dead end.
totally depends on the organization...
sysadmin 1 here works at his old high school (aka likely comfy as fuck), and is probably the top-tech-guy in the place, used to being regarded as a savior, genius, etc.
sysadmin 2 is probably in an exploitative or at least very demanding environment, probably around tech people who are superior in status / knowledge, thus is an underling, etc.
you really have to look at all factors.

I work on the meme project at my company. It's hyped all to hell and back, but there are some problems with a couple vendor components that make it unsellable right now.

Pretty fun, good exp with a lot of diff networks, businesses and hardware.
Pay is borderline livable in my area.
But its mt first real IT job and im still finishing school while working, so the exp. Is worth it over pay

What do Eurocucks have to complain about, don't your governments subsidize your very existence?
All of my classes are a joke but I still need to take out loans to attend them.

Had an interview yesterday that I fucking bombed. Didn't know half of the shit they wanted; STP, how AD replication works, ntfs move vs copy, was a shitshow.
I can't get a server role because I don't have the experience.
I need a server role to get the experience.

I wish that I didn't have to take so many classes next semester. It's about a 30 minute drive to work and I don't have much time left when I get home. Everything else is great about the job can't wait till summer to start working more hours.
