I want to be done with manual labor. How do I become one of those people that does their work on a laptop on a tropical island? Every day I just want to die. Please help.

Interesting. You seem like you know your stuff, how much would something like that pay?

Not well is relative. How much is not well?

Entry level support here in the UK is basically at or around minimum wage rising to anywhere between £13k-18k depending on how shitty the company is, speaking in terms of annual salaries. I can’t speak for the US unfortunately but I’m pretty sure shit there isn’t very different.

As for finding them though… Harder. A lot simply do not need to advertise because they get applications all the time and can simply dip into their pile of applications. Looking around for any tech-sector companies with support teams and seeing if they’ve got anything currently listed on their site, or just dropping them stuff. A lot of people in the server industry in particular actually start in the support roles before filtering to more technical roles like sysops and sys admins.
