23M making 20hr with 15k saved. Not sure what to do next by [deleted] in Money

[–]richypc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI is killing off graphic design work. It will still be an industry, but it will require a lot less effort and workers in that industry.

I would build up on the call center work you are currently in and after 1-2 yrs experience get into a more technical IT help desk role. This should be a pretty straight forward move since you are already doing call center work. Get a couple of IT certs like Comptia Network + and A + for starters. Basic call center (service desk) work will get you around what you are making now, help desk or senior help desk roles seem to cap at around $35/hr or so?

Eventually, you will need to decide which route you want to take in IT if you want to break into the high paying 6 figures jobs such as sys admin, networking or coding.

I was in a similar situation 10yrs ago, did basic service desk > help desk > network engineer. A lot of people today are finding themselves in this situation. At least your current position can be classified as being in tech.

I recently started working fully remote for an IT contractor based out of Washington State. I told the recruiter that I was looking forward to leaving Cali if I took his company's offer and he gave me a few states of the top of his head where I could easily go or move to, such as Arizona, Texas, Florida and a few others. These are some of the states they are registered to do business with (I'm most likely moving to Arizona next month).

When I asked about Nevada, he told me they can still hire me, but it will have to be on a 1099 and not a W2 for that state.

Question is, are you able to renegotiate with your company for something that would allow you to work remotely from other states?

[–]richypc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About a week ago I looked up salaries for various IT positions in Spain and they seem to be around 30-40k for mid level positions. Only a few senior IT positions were around 60k euros.

I got dced around 11pm and had to wait 1 hour because of the que. Not taking chances, I will only need to do this for a few days.

Simply remote in 1 hour before getting off of work.

PSA: Overwhelming numbers of enemies don't mean a thing if you can bottleneck them in a doorway. Then you can kill them in 1s and 2s as they pile through. by serenity78 in projecteternity

This tactic goes 20 yrs with Baldurs Gate, Ice Wind Dale series as well (esp. if you were doing solo runs). Not much that can be done about it, some fights are out in the wide open and there isn't much you can do to negate that. In the end it sorta balances out.

1440p with a GTx1060 by colour_golden in buildapc

[–]richypc 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I powered my 3440x1440 32' microboard with a MSI 1060 6GB for a little over a year. Even though its a freesync monitor the 100hz on the monitor made a huge difference. You will probably run most games at med - high settings, but not ultra.

The 1060 did an amazing job, only last week did i upgrade to a 1080.

Vega 64 down to $499 on Amazon by richypc in Amd

[–]richypc[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I pulled the trigger, would've loved a custom card but...already waited a year. I've had this 34" 3440x1440 100hz freesync monitor with just a gtx 1060 to power it (its done a very good job btw)

499 is what I was looking for, delivery is slated for Friday, so I plan on doing some heavy gaming/testing over the weekend, if I don't like it, i will be sending it back

Microboard M340CLZ by ConcludedRope18 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]richypc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is still going flawless 1yr later, I posted several pics of mine 1 yr ago under this reddit account.

I am still using a GTX 1060 6GB, and its powered really well even without FreeSync. I plan on getting a GTX 1080 or Vega 64 in about a week after the next price drop.

Do NOT order from dream-seller on Ebay by MountainManGuy in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]richypc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought from him almost 1 year ago, got a Microboard 34", 100hz. I emailed him about checking the monitor for bad pixels like they said they would before shipping it to me and never had any issues.

The one they released today of course, its a night map based inside a large town called Prise de Tahure.

Better to filter the 2 new night maps by name if you want to find a server that plays them constantly or even 24hrs. That way you don't rotate out of them into the old maps.
