Robert posted a rhetorical question on my blog yesterday. It's a good one too - check it out: "Why don't we just accept it: IT, in the West at least, is a dying industry. It's not glamorous, it's not sexy and it's not desirable. In case anyone thinks I'm overreacting, how many of the staff at Computing would recommend IT to their own children. This is not a rhetorical question, by the way: I really do want to know."
Actually, it's not a rhetorical question - as I previously stated - and I apologise. So, in an attempt to find an answer to Robert's poser, I turned (literally, to my left) and asked Computing editor Bryan Glick for his thoughts: "There's still lots of interesting jobs in the UK IT industry," he said. "But I wouldn't recommend a career as a code cutter - not unless you want to go and work in India."
