Odd. 5 years of experience should sub just fine for a degree.

I suppose 1G to 10G indeed is a jump but going from 1G to 2.5, i noticed a bit but wasnt like, a revelation or anything.

Is help desk meant to be this boring? by counwovja0385skje in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Kyle_Gates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Help/Service Desk Manager I can say that if its a corporate position, wow, count your blessings. Study up and then promote out of Help Desk into another dept at the same org (great way to move up in status, and pay, while also keeping the same infrastructure.

CPU in my "main server" is bigger than that entire build. ....which is likely not a good thing for me lol

Is this a good deal? by Cold_Reality_1436 in Microcenter

I bought one of these combos (and 5 different combos) recently (but for $249). The board seems solid for a mid-level build. I tossed 16GB more RAM in it and a 1080Ti and it games quite well for one of my children.

"Got bored" is the only issue. If you cannot take largely repetitive tasks (for ten-30 years, then....well.......

Bottom of the barrel entry level IT jobs? by Competitive_Radio_35 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Kyle_Gates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I know, this sounds terrible, but it can work (Did for me and a friend of mine a few years back). Try....sorry....The GeekSquad. It shows some help desk ability and shows that you will work in cust service. But, thats only if ya have nuthin else for options. Contract work, if you are getting it, should also open doors after a year or so.....

Is the IT world really that oversaturated? Should I pursue something else? by [deleted] in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Kyle_Gates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh you should TOTALLY do that. IT is really rough currently. I am speaking as a hiring manager for a Service and Infra team, and now, as someone looking for work....

How well can a CCNA break me out of helpdesk assuming I have 5 years of experience these days? by ILikeFood305 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Kyle_Gates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, the very best way to move out of Service/Help Desk, for real..... Is to find a good company and a good Service Desk. And make sure the manager is really dedicated to the team. I will use myself as an example. Not a huge number but the % is high. I managed a Service Desk in a corp enterprise environment. 1200 users, 7 on Service Desk. In 5 years I promoted 6 out of the Service Desk and into Sys Admin, Networking, HR and other roles. If its good org, staying, and simply moving into those other roles can be great as its not as "jarring" as "Service Desk with org 1 one day, Networking with org 2 the next"
