Fewer pink slips for techies

Does comp repair fall under IT?: I don't mean to be rude when I point this out, but I don't think 'computer repair' usually falls under the IT professional listing, unless it is as a skill used in conjunction with other jobs. (For example, network admins may repair computers every so often (or so I hear), but it is not their explicitly stated job)
Not that computer repair isn't needed, mind you, but usually the computer skills needed in an IT job impart some knowledge of computer repair. (Then there's Best Buy, whose idea of computer repair is 'Replacing HP computers > 7 months old :P ); Posted by: theding0 Posted on: 02/17/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
