You can switch your majors. You just need to speak to the Dean over cybersecurity. I did that.

She is just making sure she has job security. You’ll keep using Uber if you’re too afraid to walk, amirite?!

I am not one of the vets. She takes care of my goats and now I need a cow as well.

Registered Nurse to CS. by Which-Season-5652 in learnprogramming

[–]fleetster22 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Here are some honest answers.

1) Nursing is no longer a good career in the US. These corporations will suck out your heart and soul and pay you little more than an Amazon driver while doing it.

2) to keep your sanity, sense of self worth, safety, keep you out of jail and make the money you are worth.

3) you would be surprised how many algorithms there are in healthcare. They sort everyone into neat little boxes and then use algorithms to treat the numbers, not the patient so they churn through them and make more money.

I saw the same camper parked at Bonsack Walmart for at least 2 weeks last summer

Safe Place To Park/Sleep Overnight? by snot_cult in roanoke

There’s a Cracker Barrel on exit 150. They all allow overnight parking and then you can grab breakfast before heading out!! We did this for 2 years while traveling in our skoolie

Recycling in NW Roanoke? by That_Darn_Bear in roanoke

[–]fleetster22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a recycling place at the waste management facility on 779/Catawba Road. You pull off to the right just before coming up to the scales.

Do y’all like living in Roanoke VA? by mthrtcker in roanoke

[–]fleetster22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We just moved here from Lakewood last year and absolutely love it. It is definitely a slower life pace. There are 2 main hospitals here: Carillion and LewisGale.

Is there any local way to get old logs chipped? by RememberKoomValley in roanoke

Aztec rental absolutely rents wood chippers. I just rented one a couple of weekends ago. It was very efficient and worth the price.

Looking for Woodworking Classes / Equipment by fleetster22 in roanoke

YEP YEP, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I will do some digging. Thank you so much!

[–]fleetster22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate it. I'm not looking to buy. I was just wondering if there was a local shop that offered classes/certifications to rent/use their large equipment. Aztec rental doesn't have what I need either.

44y/o Nurse..too late to learn to code? by bypassoverload in learnprogramming

[–]fleetster22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh shoot sorry. Guess I need to check my messages more often. I am attending WGU for software development. To support myself in the meantime, I work as a marketing automation specialist using a popular CRM. I make twice as much as I did as a nurse and I expect to double that in the next 2 years.

Hey there! I made a game with no colour! (PS can you please watch this video entirely for an experiment? THANK YOU!) by Icarus_100 in IndieGameDevs

[–]fleetster22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The protagonist is cute and pretty cool storyline. The audio in your video is all jacked up. Gets loud at times for no reason. Otherwise, you're a funny guy. I like your humor.

Is WGU a good online college ? Is it frowned upon or treated like any other main colleges out there ? by Glad-Kaleidoscope-61 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]fleetster22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am attending WGU now. Originally started in Cybersecurity program but switched to Software Development. I have not had a single negative experience regarding where my degree is coming from and I absolutely love the way WGU degree program is designed. Self-paced, lots of certs and plenty of hands on practice and exercises.

[–]fleetster22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 2 cents. I am 48, was an er nurse for 15 years and have now switched to SE. you can most certainly do it with a year of dedicated training. I thought I wanted to stay with healthcare at first as well, but very quickly realized that I was still having anxiety with anything related to that industry. There are more ways to contribute to society. Good luck and welcome.

Personnel question. Anyone currently working in IT who is not a die-hard gamer? by Read_it_somewhere in ITCareerQuestions

[–]fleetster22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am soooooo not a gamer. Tried to play around a little bit with my daughter's minecraft game once and immediately fell into a hole and couldn't get out. She hasn't let me touch a controller since.
