It really depends on what you specialize in to be fair. If your help desk for random end users all day and get paid that...shit. You lucked out.

I interned at a lawyer's IT department. They had written tutorials for everything they did and the second they didn't? Paid IBM expert to do it for you. They also had soda machines with endless supplies of soda and made shitload of money picking up the phone and saying "have you tried turning it off and on?"
;_;
I wish I could have stayed, but there's a family policy (no two members of the same family), real sad.

I feel your pain. I once interned at the International PreSchools down the block from the united nations building. The learning experience was better than I anticipated because I went in after learning about windows networks and left understanding how macs worked as well. All day we'd hang out, me and my supervisor. We'd go from site to site fixing simple things like printers or updating software, sometimes performing backups to transfer databases. I got put on to this pizzeria on 43rd I think it was. 99 cents a slice and boy were they good. Got to try jamaican food for the first time and would download software like photoshop for free. On the days he was out I'd sometimes use remot desktop to mess with people, the cool people, the ones who found it funny. Not to mention at events I'd get to mingle with parents and faculty rich enough to put their toddles in freakin private schools.
But then...the darkness took over. Lmao

Like someone said, it really depends on which part of IT you enter. Stuff like programming and DBA is pretty interesting, but a lot of other IT (sys admin, helpdesk) are so soul suckingly shit you'll wish you were dead.

There is a difference between what you're doing and providing support for software such as Operating Systems. A systems administrator tackles managing an entire floor of users and servers. A Help Desk is mainly providing support to noobs who don't know that right clicking even exists.
My forte that I'm banking on is my extreme knowledge of the Windows operating system coupled with my networking knowledge. Plus my experience with hardware comes in handy too.
As a programmer you're on the side of IT about making the actual programs that I get to force/fix/smash my head against when Windows decides to act like a child. You couldn't pay me enough to program. Rather, you couldn't provide enough drugs.

It pays really well, though.
EDIT: And you learn how to make games. And software engineers have GREAT senses of humor.
Like, seriously. They're not super super super funny, but they do try, and that's entertaining itself.

My experience with Windows started with 3.1 and 5 1/2 inch disks. It progressed all the way to XP where it stopped until Vista was released. So about 6 years. Then 7 came out and nothing's really changed. I'm still a boss when it comes to Windows. My networking experience came from home routers and school over the years. Then from my buddy and former classmate out here in Ohio. My hardware experience came from both do it yourself and more recently from job experience.
TL;DR - I belong working with software and managing users. It's my niche.

Moderately dislike, as in I'm fine doing it now but don't want to do it for the rest of my life: working computer repair. People are dense and it's frustrating.
