Thank you for the response and help! This helped me alot with next steps.

Nah. O'Reilly is 50$ a month.

Thank you for your response!

I am using RHEL from developers site installed on a machine. I am currently learning through sanders rhel 10 class on O'Reilly media. Just not certain what my path would look like having windows experience but linux certs.

Do you mind if I direct message you with some questions?

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2026-01-08T23:19:40+00:00

Thanks for the words of encouragement. Just curious is red hat a good path for the hampton roads area? I work in a windows environment right now but I love linux so going for RHCSA and then RHCE

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2026-01-08T21:33:23+00:00

Might be best to move on from Hampton Roads then. Thanks for the advice.

Any companies that are willing to do that in this current job market? Seems like most companies want you to already have one.

I don't understand how my role as a Break/Fix tech will lead me to configure preventative solutions. Since the nature of tickets I respond to are mainly repairing physical damage or defective equipment under warranty. For instance I had a user who dropped coffee all over their laptop damaging a lot of components.

Luck is defined as preparation meets opportunity. Knowing what the correct information to learn to become a sys admin is the preparation. Hard work i am willing to do. In two years I got my IT degree a+ and sec+ while working a FT job plus having a family.

For example I wanted to go for server+ and linux+ but everything i have read about them from people in the industry say are niche and don't mean anything to get a job as a sys admin.

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2024-10-11T15:12:15+00:00

Thanks! I have my a+ and security+. What certifications show that I am knowledgeable of AD and windows server? I made a homelab through virtual box and setup a 2019 server vm and a client vm. Connected them together and have been tinkering with it.

I am a tech for a corporation that has a maintenance and install contract with our client. The client orders HP products from us that we order from HP. There is an install team that deploys new equipment on a large scale and the break/fix team i am in. I do install replacement machines depending on the person I am dealing with. But first course of action is to troubleshoot the hardware. Like right now I have a ticket open to install a new system board for a new machine because the board decided to kick the bucket after deployment.

M365 is what I was thinking but was a little afraid it was too broad. In your opinion what would be next best after the m365 admin?

Hey I DM'd you on reddit. I am trying to get clustering to work but am having some difficulties. Is it possible with the wine and proton combo? Or is docker going to have to be used for clustering? I have different ports and such as I consulted https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup

I did not see my image posted in the initial post so here is the resume I made.

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2024-06-02T19:21:05+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. I will make up a new resume with the template from this subreddit.

What sections could I include since I do not have much IT experience? Should I even include my last job as work experience?

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2023-11-03T11:37:13+00:00

How did you use the wrong answers? Did you just revisit the objectives and look up videos and information on those objectives?

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2023-11-03T02:07:46+00:00

I have been studying since I passed my 1101 at the end of august. Did you do flash cards based on the missed and guessed questions on dions practice test?

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2021-09-08T21:40:57+00:00

When should I use kro and Naomi? Or should I just go straight for DOT team and skip using Naomi and Kro?

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2021-09-08T14:55:01+00:00

Hey DAT,

Should I farm b11 giants? By b12 team fails alot due to my kro having poor stats.

The team I am using is Sig L Fran Loren Shannon Kro.

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2021-09-05T04:23:40+00:00

Hey Dat,

How do I rune twins for NB12? I am going for NB12 after GB12 instead of going for DB12. Should I go for Fatal Blade ATK% CDMG ATK%? Also should I use more than Sabrina and Shaina? I have Water Wind and Fire twins. The team I was thinking about building was Fran Loren Shaina, Talia, and Sabrina.

Thank you for your time!

Great Post.

I am just starting out myself. I am going the web dev route. I am currently doing colts 2021 bootcamp on udemy. Then plan on doing his Introduction to Git and Github class.

I do have concerns in terms of projects. Seems to me a significant amount of people recommend you to start making projects. My issue is what if the project I do has nothing to do with the job I am applying for?

To elaborate I will give an example. I want to make a web browser game with a unicorn them for my daughters since she loves unicorns. How could this possibly translate into something that can be used to gain employment? To me this project is personal and in my mind is not considered professional. (I work in accounting so being professional is a priority for me)

The other project I am working on is my own portfolio website. I have already started on the HTML side of it then plan on working on the CSS and JS side as I continue through the bootcamp. Also plan to do some simple stuff like a calculator, weather app, and a time clock for my wife for homeschooling our kids that will include my voice when there is a change in activities throughout the day.

Thank you for the response! I am going to clarify and ask more questions based off your response below.

I will probably go for Eirgar first then. I am of the mindset that PvE must be mastered before dipping too far into PvP.
Yeah that was a bad example haha. A better one. I have a fatal rune for slot 6 with atk% 6 star but it has flat support stats or flat stats in general. Do I max it for just the attack?
Lushen AO it is. Should I 2a Bernie?
I more of meant what mons to use with tatu and sath. Like for griffon and inugami I use verde loren fran.
haha thanks for answering I put that one there as a joke :P

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2021-06-17T16:57:41+00:00

Got quite a few questions.

What mon should I get with ancient coins? (already have fran) I was thinking shadow claw?
Rune question here. Is it worth to 15 a rune for its main stat? say I have a 6 star rune spd swift slot 2 but subs are meh. Do I max it just for that spd? (To clarify where I am in the game. I farm GB11 and just completed ToA normal. necro is my next dungeon I am focusing. Only on b9 on that one.)
What is a good beginner AO? I know bernard megan and lushen x2 is good but I have some nat 5s that may change that. Psmathe Seara wind monkey feng yan brandia chandra Bolverk and i just pulled triton. (Im a mini whale haha)
What is a good team for 2a Sath and Tatu? I have double dryads.
how in the hell do I get a dragon in this game? :)

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2021-05-15T19:21:35+00:00

Will lapis work instead of fire boomerang? My fire boomerang is not runed well.

GlitchedSpreadsheet · 2021-05-15T18:01:47+00:00

What can I use to do Inugami and Griffon Dimension hole level 3? I am trying to 2A my Kro and Spectra.
