the bachelors and 5 years exp kills it for me, otherwise i wouldn't have a problem handling those tasks. Doesn't the computer age understand yet that we don't need degrees to understand how to build, fix and work on computers?

Sad part is that the job probably pays $9.50 an hour.

It isn't always the ability alone that lands you a job.  Given 100 candidates that can ALL perform tasks A, B and C, some companies are only interested in those that they feel can perform tasks A, B, and C along with A1-A7, D1-22.  Completion of a degree certifies that a candidate should have certain qualifications and has a higher chance of being able to perform the additional tasks as well as function in a certain environment.  This said, I suffer from the same issue where I do not have a degree in the field I work.  It causes issues for me as well at times but the RoI on a degree is minimal for me at this point in life.

No idea what it pays, but it's probably more than I make.
