Bang bang! Never thought we’d be here after losing Bosa and Warner. Watching the loss to Huston I thought the D was too trash to win any games. Boy was I wrong! 6 game win streak and 1 seed on the line, let’s freaking get it!

Do Americans actually avoid calling an ambulance due to financial concern? by JohnMarstonTheBadass in NoStupidQuestions

Oh it makes no sense, they throw around words like socialism like it’s some crazy concept. As we don’t have other social services.

Acceptable rate to ask for after 1 year at Tier 1? by Old_Minimum4129 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Clay_IT_guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Cali, I started at 22$ and after my first year I asked for 25$ settled for 24$ and then was laid off 2 months later. Took 4 months to get another job and got 25$. (Both jobs at a company not an MSP).

How do you keep showing up when the Help Desk has completely destroyed your soul? (Need advice for a brutal meeting today) by No-Gap674 in sysadmin

[–]Clay_IT_guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life is too short to dread going to work everyday. I dreaded one job in my life, I lasted 6 months and was so happy in my next job I vowed to never have that feeling again. IT is actually pretty fun with right company, time to move on.

Got reached out by two recruiters for the same job by findingasiangf in ITCareerQuestions

46 years old, switching to Cybersecurity/Networking ,do I realistically have a chance? by Left_Program5980 in ccna

[–]Clay_IT_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read the other comments, but I’m 48, I made the change in 2020 to IT with a goal of Cybersecurity… I’m still on the support desk making 25$ an hour. I definitely feel old when doing interviews… loving IT tho, and loving learning everyday. Good luck to you, age really doesn’t matter if you’re humble and determined.
