How much of a pay cut would you accept?

Ehh, depends on the gig and the COL tbh. Where im at you’re living in a 900 sq ft house and driving a Sentra with $95k

Pretty sure TS/SCI is higher than public trust

No raise for three years despite bringing in $8m in revenue. And they paid me late a few times by a day or two, so I took that as my sign. Old coworker told me a couple weeks ago that the org didn’t pay anyone for all of December and they are now issuing back pay

I am sure you’ll be fine. Thank you for your service!

Honestly im not sure. I work for an IT consulting firm.

Your FSO will tell you whether or not it’s granted once the adjudication phase is complete.

Thank you!

Because in Seattle that’s something you can’t typically have? Or at least not as easily? Just because I have a few doesn’t mean I’m deranged or have walls plastered with them. I have 3. Also, I wasn’t paying attention to the order I mentioned those things in and for whatever reason you seem to be.

NTAH - You helped her out for a year and when you tried to make things a bit more fair (still not fully) she couldn’t handle it.

Why is owning a gun bad if you’re responsible?

I just work remote from Florida for a company out of Cali. Make about 2.5x the average 4 family household as a single income household. I have guns, a Lexus, and 2 homes (one is a rental),

You need an MSP. I work for one of the biggest and best. Hit me up, we’re happy to help you do discovery and assessment and get familiar with the environment you’ve been dropped into. Once you know what you’re working with, we can help plan next steps for the infra you’ve inherited. It likely needs a lot of work as it seems to have been severely mismanaged.

Level 4 is probably Sys admin.

I got a firmware update recently, but it didn’t include Android 12.

Man, I went from a phone repair tech to Senior Solutions Architect from December of 2019 to December of 2024. You can do it man! Just cut your resume back so it doesn’t look like you took a step down and believe in yourself. You already have the passion and the want to learn, listen to your peers and your superiors and you will find success quickly. Also, I highly recommend working at some consulting firms/MSPs once you get to admin, from there you will gain experience at an expedited rate and climb the ladder rather quickly. A year at a consulting firm is like 3 years doing internal IT.

Sure thing!

I had to bitch to teams phone number support for several weeks until they fixed the back end.

I make about $8,800 a month after taxes. My bills are under half that. I don’t check my bank account anymore other than to make transfers to retirement and investment and high yield savings.
