tpu, sounds like you'll be well trained for the life:
Get to the office, same old faces and office politics
Get to the crew room, same old faces and company politics.
Same old users complaining that the system is either too slow or doesn't work
Same old pilots whinging that the crewing department stinks
Too busy so you always have a sandwhich at ones desk
Grabbing a sandwich you've bought from the cabin crew during the third out of six 5 minute cruises, in a six sector day with no break at all.
While you are eating the hotline rings so you have to answer
while you are eating ATC call, you jam your mike with chicken and mayo
About to leave at the end of the day and the system crashes so you are obliged to stay and sort the problem out
About to leave at the end of the day, and crewing decide you've got two more sectors to do
Then on call at weekends for system upgrades, regulatory upgrades
Don't worry about this one as you'll be working 90% of weekends anyway

And you still want to leave IT.... you must be crazy!
