System Administrator

The job of a system administrator is basically to keep the computers of any given company up and running. This involves a number of smaller "sub-jobs, a few of which include setting up user accounts and passwords, installing, configuring and running software, answering questions that any users might have about the systems, and etcetra. Depending on the size and resources of a company, a system administrator may even be required to actually open up computers and do maintenance work with the hardware.

Being a system administrator actually sounds like a decent job. It's has relatively good pay, and it seems like a I would almost enjoy doing this kind of work. There are other things I would like to do even more, but problem solving, the key skill involved in system administration, is something that I actually consider fun.
