Is it as hard to pursue a career in IT as people say?
I find computers and working with them really interesting, and I'd love to pursue a career in IT, but I've heard many people suggest I do something else because of the competitive market. I don't need to be some fancy tech engineer with a 6 figure salary, as long as I can get a job that pays enough for me to live I'd be fine. Is it a bad idea to go into IT with the market right now? Additionally, do certain subsects of IT have better markets? eg. Cybersecurity vs computer software vs networking, etc.
