>>109674317you are going to get a lot of anons being mean to you and saying negative things. let me give you actually helpful advice. this advice also goes for any other anons with "how do i become dev?" questions too.you need one of three things.1. know somebody personally that will get you hired. call that person and ask for a job. this is the most preferable of the three i am going to suggest to you.2. extreme luck as influenced by an overwhelmingly positive karmic load. this is achievable by having done something great in a past life, like being a war hero or hitler.3. invent a time machine.

Idk if it was on here or the Underemployed thread but I just started learning the A+ 2 days ago and realized I know 90% of the material besides the printers and networking sections. Should I just speedrun and take the exam next week so I can start on my Net+?

>>109676922loser talk. nobody pities you. have you actually ever tried achieving anything in your life? dedicating yourself to something? you haven't given life a chance. if no one gives a shit about you when you're alive, no one will give a shit about when you kill yourself. drop the bullshit. you're too big of a pussy to do it. its never been easy for anyone that's achieved something of worth. you should be thankful for the trials and tribulations.

>>109673833I got fired from an MSP and it was one of the first times I lost a job and was thrilled. Now I haul trash out of bank-owned houses and I am unironically happier. I make more money, too.
>>109673851No, I got that for free and did a couple linux scripting courses. One was a jeet from IBM with nothing but busywork assignments using ls. The entire "scripting" course was effectively going down the ls man page and using every single one of the flags in an example.>saaars you are now linux sysadmin you can see the contents of a directoryAnyone paying for that is getting absolutely raped.

>>109682279the thing is, i know other people that worked with this guy in another company before ours, and he's supposed to be pretty good at the job. I've also spent a couple days with him at this point and he actually does seem to be pretty good at setting up servers and securing them, he definitely knows his shit. Yet for some reason in like almost 10 years of doing this job he never managed to memorize git add/commit/push/pullI think he might be trolling...

He shared his screen once and had a word document (obviously written by him, none of the other software people ever used word) open with ten or so basic git commands.He wasn't particularly amazing and had to quit because of a family thing. I think there are a lot of people out there who just don't get pushed very hard? I remember interviewing at this one place in 2022 that was still on SVN.

>>109676210akshually a while ago i fucked up and wrecked on my bike badly enough that i broke a street tree in half with my chest, arrived to work covered in mud and bleeding, and the only thing my coworkers had to say was that i looked like a jawai tried to joke back saying that I was back from my journey in the desert or something thinking he was having a giggle at how dirty i was and he just said "No, because you forgot to take your goggles off". even then the only thing else anyone said was my boss, a genuine vet, saying the bandage i slapped on to just not bleed all over paperwork was janky and that i should raid a first aid box for proper band-aids instead of having masking tape on my armthey do not care and if your injury is light neither should youactually another time i was going to my military unit and slipped the front (i braked on some black ice) and the only thing anyone had to say was asking why i had a mirror in my pocket (similarly the only damage then was snapping a mirror off). i had to do my FORCE test that day though so i kept it quiet that i had fallen (still passed sprinting on a bruised knee and chain smoking to soothe myself)

>>109684935I sawed apart a thin piece of MDF to use as a non-conductive backplate, was annoyed at how inconvenient is is to get raw-ish material and tooling, and then felt better knowing that most techbros have never operated any physical tool in their life and that even for being so lame for an IT dustman, the average IT dustman has had more actual physical involvement in this cruel and twisted but ultimately at least tangible world than any "SWE" ever has or will

>>109687604I'm getting the vibes that my immediate and skip management were planning to keep me but got surprised with this unprecedented hiring freeze (this never happened before).Tbh others probably just got turned full term because they joined before me and would have been kicked before me but it's still such a cucking that I'm willing to fuck everyone else over for it, you're telling me the company is going to collapse if they keep one extra nigga?

>>109686466That smells like budget issues/H1B future slavery. You have to realize we're just inputs to an industrial engineering function, and your inputs were too expensive long term.

>>109687841I don't understand what the use for JIRA tickets is atp. Anyone who can write a ticket can certainly paste it into Claude instead of submitting to the JT board. Then why not just do it? The only reason I can conjure is that the company might be behind in its AI integration strategy, but if that's the case then there are higher priorities to lend attention to than anything a JIRA ticket could be asking for.

>>109689208It's more often true than not that companies go overboard with ticket documentation autism and bureaucracy when most work items can be reduced to a few fieldsthis is especially maddening when the product/business side doesn't even do their job on it so it's of no use to you, description/requirements wise
