Most of you can safely ignore this.
"As the result of a boom in hiring for IT managers over the past five years, many IT professionals with stellar technical skills have been thrust into managerial roles. The number of IT managers employed in the United States has jumped 44% since the dot-com collapse of 2001, compared with a 19% decline in the number of programming and support jobs. IT managers now represent 11.2% of IT employment, the fourth-largest tech job category, up from 7.8% in mid-2001, when it ranked sixth overall. As a number of examples point out, this trend is critical for IT professionals to understand as they manage their own careers or make decisions about hiring and developing staffers. Even people who want to stay on a technical track must pay attention to this important trend, since it impacts the types of skills that are valued and the changing way that IT is used and implemented within organizations."
