Hi! I'm not sure if this is the bowl to post a vent to so I hope I'm not bothering anyone with this. I'm just nervous because it looks like my Tier 3 team will be phased out soon. I've been pretty lucky since getting into IT. I'm not young, I went back to school later in life and got my degree. I've gone from helpdesk Tier 1 to technician, system admin, application support, and then to lead the Tier 3 team I'm on. I've always had great yearly reviews. When I left for the --

-2- application support role my company and the prime both tried to counteroffer to keep me, my boss had never seen that before. Unfortunately, the pay gap was too much to not move, so I did.

-3- Things have changed in the IT field obviously, and while I did great in the space I worked in, I do not feel like I will land well in the current environment. I'm not a developer, but have worked in development, design, integration and deployment. I'm probably the oldest person on my team but I've incorporated AI for making some of our tasks more efficient, not so much automated, but definitely cut down time-consuming tasks down from days or hours to minutes. Despite my successes where I'm at, I feel like I'm starting over again. Or rather, would be starting over again. I know others have been where I'm trying to get myself prepared to be. Can someone give me some words of wisdom? I'm preparing as much as I can, and trying to keep my head up, but the worry is getting heavy. Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone! First time using this app. I always wondered, how are other IT help desk jobs? I’ll share how mine is.
I work at an MSP (Managed Service Provider) meaning we are the IT services for many other companies. It’s busy all the time and I get to experience all different types of apps, OSes, and almost every aspect of IT in this way. I make around 50k which is alright but its hectic as there’s too many tickets and not enough personnel. I heard this is common but I’m not sure.
