I've been working at the local hardware store for 4 years. Completed HSC in 2003. Had 2004 off to concentrate on 2005 at tafe, however my application was rejected 8 months after handing it in. I'm on a waiting list. Now i've got no idea what to do for 2005 and it frustrates me alot. I've got many skills but no qualifications... jack of all trades, master of none.

Got Diploma in Software Engineering in 2002. Worked at maccas for 3 1/2 years, Franklins, Coles for 3 1/2 years during school and TAFE.
Found it impossible to get started in programming, everyone seems to want experience, not a diploma.
Been working for an Outsourcing It company (Call Centre) for past year or so on the Graveyard shift. 7 pm to 7 am. Am on the Microsoft account. The work is easy but the hours suck. I am usually lucky to get a single call each night. Once went three weeks without getting a call. Very very very boring. so i watched movies, played games, surf net etc.
Just moved within the same company to the Data Centre as an operator, much more stimulating.
