Question Information about Unix System Administration

I'm a newbie so I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right section... if I didn't, please forgive me Smilie
I've been looking all over the web for information on system administration. I'd like to become a Unix System Administrator but I want to find some more info about the job. Can someone please give me some information(or links to websites with info) about what to major in to become one, salary figures, hours a week you would work?...
Also, if anyone is a Unix System Administrator... do you like the job? What could I expect for a starting salary? Salary after 5yrs? 10yrs? Is there good demand for this job?
Thanks

GEARMAN_JOB_WORKLOAD_SIZE(3)					     Gearmand					      GEARMAN_JOB_WORKLOAD_SIZE(3)

NAME
gearman_job_workload_size - Gearmand Documentation, http://gearman.info/ SYNOPSIS
#include <libgearman/gearman.h> gearman_job_st void gearman_job_free(gearman_job_st *job) gearman_return_t gearman_job_send_data(gearman_job_st *job, const void *data, size_t data_size) gearman_return_t gearman_job_send_warning(gearman_job_st *job, const void *warning, size_t warning_size) gearman_return_t gearman_job_send_status(gearman_job_st *job, uint32_t numerator, uint32_t denominator) gearman_return_t gearman_job_send_complete(gearman_job_st *job, const void *result, size_t result_size) gearman_return_t gearman_job_send_exception(gearman_job_st *job, const void *exception, size_t exception_size) gearman_return_t gearman_job_send_fail(gearman_job_st *job) const char *gearman_job_handle(const gearman_job_st *job) const char *gearman_job_function_name(const gearman_job_st *job) const char *gearman_job_unique(const gearman_job_st *job) const void *gearman_job_workload(const gearman_job_st *job) size_t gearman_job_workload_size(const gearman_job_st *job) void *gearman_job_take_workload(gearman_job_st *job, size_t *data_size) Link with -lgearman DESCRIPTION
gearman_job_st are passed to worker functions to represent jobs that are being run by gearman_worker_work(). gearman_job_free() is used to free a job. This only needs to be done if a task was created with a preallocated structure. gearman_job_handle() returns the job handle(see gearman_job_handle_t for more information). gearman_job_function_name() return the name of the function that the job was set to execute against. gearman_job_unique() return the unique value that was used for gearman_job_st. returns the gearman_job_st workload. The size of it can be determined with gearman_job_workload_size(). gearman_job_take_workload() is the same as gearman_job_workload() with the exception that the result must be free(3) by the caller. RETURN VALUE
A value of gearman_return_t is returned. On success that value will be :c:type::GEARMAN_SUCCESS. Use gearman_strerror() to translate this value to a printable string. HOME
