Systems Administrator @ Broadway Express in Effingham, IL
"I love being involved in all facets of the company, and computers these days are so inter-woven in everything that most companies do. I love the fact that I can learn as much as I want or limit myself as much. I hate being limited by bad machinery or antique equipment. I would say that overall, being a systems administrator is a rewarding job."
