Airline Industry Critic?
So I work for a large corporation that contracts out to the government. I was hired to develop applications, including web applications. My last three jobs have been with government contractors. I believe that I was hired at all three positions because of my security clearance. I never really had a mentor to help me build my experience. I fumbled through it all alone.Government contract jobs are like fishing in the rain. It's kinda nice to be away from things(the corporate bs) but you'd really rather be somewhere else. I graduated last year with a degree in computer science. I have been developing for 9+ years now. I recently applied for my Master's program at the Embry-Riddle University.
I feel as if programming digresses my thinking. I do not really like logic and there are so many applications and tools for programming. It is really difficult to stay on top of things. But I try and I pretend to learn but I don't really learn. I tinker with this and that and pretend to know about it. I see other people breeze right through it and I feel retarded.
I took a side job for a small web developing company and I have been thrown into the midst of what seems to be jargon world. I am not used to doing business by phone, never the less trying to figure out how I am going to get paid for something I know nothing about.
I may be being humble with my skills but I really feel silly looking at some of the stuff this new gigs has presented to me. I wish I could quit and fly on airplanes allday.
I want to be an airline industry critic. I love to fly and I love airports. Give me that and I'll be happy.
