Hi, /prog/. Long time lurker, first time poster.
Basically, I'm starting college soon for computer science, and I wanted to know what you thought about it? What I mean is, I've programmed for awhile now and have built databases in the past, and I think I would like to do Database Administration for a job after graduation. Is this alright, or am I naive of the field? Also, do you think I should be worried at all about all that offshoring stuff I hear so much about? Or is there still enough work available out there that as long as I'm actually competent and can do that work, I won't really need to worry?
Thanks for the advice.
