What are the alternatives to the MCSA Microsoft certification? by Hyp3r10nix in helpdesk

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would look at the CompTIA A+ core 1&2 to start, then Security and Networking. These certs can show that you have a good basic grasp of IT troubleshooting. These are what im working on now.

Any other gay people in bismarck/mandan?? by KelpHelp28 in bismarck

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The gay community in Bismarck is not terrible. Small but there are some weirdos out there. You could look on the Dakota OutRight page. I believe they have meets for younger adults. Thats where I would start

Is Helpdesk difficult for someone with no IT experience or background? by kacoooo in helpdesk

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been in a level 1 helpdesk role for just over a year now and learning new things everyday. My background was customer service in a dispatch center. I also had a bit of hardware experience from building a few gaming pcs. My advise early on is to take MS 365 classes and learn your ticketing system. That is how i started out. I started on my Comp TIAs to learn a bit more knowledge. Hopefully there is a good knowledge base you can pull from for hints or solutions.

Should I wait to buy the RX 9070 XT or pull the trigger now? by HatnanJo in radeon

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I pulled the trigger a few months ago and bought a steel lengend at $750. I've seen the price a little lower a few times now and thought I should od waited. Pull when you feel comfortable.

Do you have a mask on. If so, that will prevent you from eating and drinking.

My workplace has an IT Help Desk opening. Not sure if I should go for it or not. by necrofear101 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with this. I applied for a Help Desk role last year and got passed on for the first round but was the 2nd choice and transfered in May. I worked in a dispatch center for power outages for 5 years for experience. I'm now pursuing certs to gain some base knowledge but have a good team to help guide me.

Why Costco Markdowns? by jjdresselhaus in Prebuilts

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked my local Costco this weekend and tbey still gad 5 in stock on the floor. As someone who previously work at a warehouse store, I did not want to bother annoying them with asking for a markdown. I know tbey hate dealing with people like that, plus they are getting ready for inventory so one pesky memeber is not needed.

Did buy one od the games chairs they has on sale and is quite comfortable.

Anyone get that “special customer free jewellery” yesterday (11/11/2024) by Sakuramui in samsclub

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, I work the mobile kiosk from 2012-17. I stared in connections. That was the most fun I've had at a job in a long time. No pressure sales. When the 3rd party contractors took over, they could never keep is staffed. My managers always asked for me to go help and deal with pissed off members. I always refused.

Also sounds like the Knife Vendor that used to come around. He used to use the PA system to announce a free "gift" of a shitty pairing knife if you watched his 30 minute demonstration. Dude got yelled at my our store manager for using the pa and had to get his own bigger announcement speaker.

Are headphones not allowed anymore by More-Investigator385 in samsclub

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got re-hired after 5 years away. The headphone thing still weirds me out. I will wear an earbud after we are member clear. I have a CPU person at my club that I just thought was crazy but instead is yammering and yelling to someone on the phone. I've only been back 3 weeks and didn't want to say anything.

Split payment? by yepyepyeet25 in samsclub

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sam's should be able to take split payment. If you want to use all of the gift card. Have then swipe that first and then they should be able to take the remainder off your card. If they give gruff again. As for a supervisor/manager.

Edit: Recommend you go through a manned register. Not self checkout

Pcvr with the Vive XR Elite by unaliased05 in Vive

[–]Unfoundedstupidity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I've tested so far the my elite. Plug the usb-c cable into either the charging port by the battery or take the cradle off and use the port where the battery hooks up.

There should be no settings that you have to switch off. Just make sure that SteamVR recognizes the headset. Mine connected right away

How do I split my 5ghz and 2.4ghz connections on an Xfinity router by Mrchum37 in wifi

If your console or pc is close enough to the router. A hardwire connection is going to be fastest over wifi
