Yes, depends on what skillsets you bring to the table. If you are good, you can work from home and have two jobs.

Some of the skillsets are bringing close to $125K to the table....

Lying azz bums on here:russ:


like someone making 150k+ going to really show these customer service reps their W2s?
:francis:


You know how nikkas do.

Starts off "he got to be making 150k or more"

turns into

"i know he making 160k" with no evidence

now its "i know a dude making 160+"

:mjlol:


There's 1000 IT big ballers on this board, notice not one has claim to be making more than 120k?
:sas2:

Its always, my boss, my boy, this dude. :camby:

Not sure what evidence you are looking for.... nobody is going to post paystubs or W2s on here to prove a point.

How can I do what u do? How I get my foot in the door? Help a brother out.


well since you talking out your ass bout my post, i seen all my bosses salary... they make that... and they all started at the bottom of IT.. but through people getting fired, promoted, and us getting new contracts with the state... they all make upwards of that for IT work... ain't no more implementation or even system set up.. we monitor traffic systems and they monitor us.. most cake job i ever had, that ANYBODY was doing. i'm dead ass.. we used to have 10 people, 6 of them didn't have college or certs.. 1 was hired from the state lottery, the other worked on cars and didn't know shyt.. but as long as we could teach them to type up a work order, they was getting 60k entry level cause it's considered IT

our PM was making 275k on the job.. got fired for hiring his secretary, who he was fukking, to LEAD of all statewide operations... bytch had no training.. went from 45k to 160k in a dikk suck...

we resigned the contract with the state and my pay went up 7k a year for NOTHING.. i make over 65k and i never went to school, nor have a cert, i just know computers... in the 5 years here, i've never even seen a piece of equipment.. we just automated everything so we click the right stuff, shyt gets reset and fixed.. i'm not even a team lead

my supervisor making 90k... and he sit right next to me, doing shyt...





i don't think y'all realize the power these contracts are worth.. somebody is paying 130k for IT.. my company pockets the 70k and pays us 60k... or they take the extra and overpay management. i remember getting the financials for another job.. company paying them $35 an hour for my position and i'm getting 15..

a LOT of fukkery goes on behind the scenes when it comes to money and work.. but it's still IT breh.. you still under the umbrella.. I'm still a Network Engineer on my title and it'll go on my resume I helped set up and run a state wide Network Operating Center for 5 years. My boss still NOC Manager, and is considered IT.. Whether he paid for extra duties or not.. Is he not in IT?



I'm in school to get the formal training, to have the paper.. But I'm self taught and the money is still outrageous for what I do. Now imagine what the dudes who actually hop in trucks and go out to each physical site to do IT get paid

I work in a large hospital, and directors don't typically make 150K. so I'm speaking from the industry that I'm familiar with.
Definitely This is why it always depends. The general rule is that the closer to the money you are the higher your compensation will be.

So if you are directly generating revenue from your time being billed like a consultant or in sales actually bringing in business then you will see higher numbers as opposed to supporting an enterprise like a hospital or school

Man I WISH we were hiring. We are short staffed like shyt. Another money grab.

Remember I said we had 10. Well we reupped the contract and got it to 8. That’s how we got raises. Then three people left and they hired 1 back.

Somebody bankrolling 4 damn salary’s, we gotta work OT if someone calls out or wants vacay, and yet they won’t hire more cause “we can’t afford it”

So you not paying 4 salaries and can’t afford to pay 1 more man huh? And since we do the whole state, ain’t nobody else doing our jobs. Like no other company.



But this is going nationwide. Many other states are looking to start this. Look for department of transportation job in ITS. “ITS” has nothing to do with IT, it’s the name of the traffic system. Once you find those jobs, look for IT and that’s what you’ll be doing

I could hook you up in Atlanta. They offered me a job there for 50k which would equal out with cost of living. My son is up here tho so that’s a wash. But if you’re around there, that I can help you with.
