So? A lot of IT work cam be self taught. That's how my bf learned a lot he knows before he went to college. Good for her. Encourage her to pursue it as a field.
*can
dammit Q!
AND Garak! OMG treachery is definitely afoot
You are the first person so far to figure out who I am
That’s great! You’ll get to work with your sister. For a while at least, then she’ll probably become your boss and send you out for coffee to keep you away from the broken computers.
A shitty situation no doubt, but please encourage her. The IT field desperately needs talented female techs.
I work in IT and happen to be a female. I can assure you we don't need 'talented female techs'. We need 'talented techs'.
I guess it's kind of the same problem. Men thinking they are good at computer stuff only because they are men, and women not pursuing jobs in IT because they are taught that women are shitty with computers. Then you have lots of incompetent men with hubris and very few very capable women, who at some point get sick of all the sexist shit they have to endure in this kind of job.
I don’t see this as an FML. I see this as an opening, because you figured out this isn’t the right path in life for you but a great career for your sister. Instead of being stuck in a career you’re okay at but you really don’t enjoy, now you both have the opportunity to find careers that will make you happy.
You get shown up by a school kid, you've no one to blame but yourself for not having your shit together.
you deserve it if she can out shine you
