Good luck with the notion that IT Consultants get it handy. In my experience, consultants are made, not trained.

Forget the training you only need to know how to pass a call to the techies, who will either fix it for you or advise you what to do in relation to it.

A better definition of consultant is someone who borrows your watch to tell you the time.

From my experience I would be of the opinion that a lot of people like to talk their jobs up with a good dose of complaining thrown in while looking down at other professions. Teachers are known as the biggest yaps but given how many there are it is probably just because we all tend to hear it rather than them necessarily being worse than anyone else.

The way I see it you should be able to get fully up to speed in most jobs within a year or two, don't talk it up because nobody cares and don't complain because nobody cares.

That said I could not teach. The diversity in behaviour of adults in working life is my limit without having to deal with kids day in day out but different strokes for different folks.

There is a qualified and a non qualified rate

Also, the garda vetting thing down here has cranked up a few notches

Making it very awkward for schools and sub teachers now

I don't think security checks and child protection vetting should be considered making things awkward.

Who said they get it handy? The training is difficult. Will be working for BAE
