I'am thinking about going back to school to work in the IT field. I am considering one of the following careers a systems analyst or network administrator. Do you think these are aspie friendly? What is the daily job descriptions? Do I need to go to school or be certified or both?

Also read Slashdot (slashdot.org). There are lots of discussions about being a sysadmin or analyst. Depending on your background in computer networks, social skills/preferences, and the work environment, it could go well. Or not.
