Depends on what you pursue, network systems, systems admin...I am a network admin asst, and some times are VERY busy, other times I don't have anything to do for a couple/few days. It's worth it if you can afford all the certifications and know you'll be repaid when you get a job, and it's fun too!

Ahh man, not boring, I always have something to do. And nerdy? I haven't seen many IT nerds anymore, mostly the nerds are the ones coding software and junk like that. I like the networking systems, because it's not about numbers that much, it's about making networks work, and finding new ways to integrate a company is what I like to do. And automation is very nice too, but be careful not to automate too much, it WILL put you out of a job.

Forgot to answer the last part. I used to work for a Biomedical Engineering company after I left the Army, but now I am settled into this position at a large library system. I started learning RSS, video podcasts, video conversion, all kinds of new things...
