I see, that honestly sounds like a pretty natural way get into IT. I have basically had a computer since I was in kindergarten and one parent had a MacBook while I had a windows computer. I am thankful for that because I’ve noticed that I’ve always been a bit more savvy than average people. Hearing stories like yours definitely makes me confident that I can still get really far without a CS degree.

Thankfully I’ve kept in good touch with all my past colleagues so hopefully it will work for me like it did with you.

How’d you get into IT? I feel like my path into computer work has been a bit unorthodox. I have a political science degree but no college experience with cs just otj experience. It feels like having my background definitely helps on the soft skills just may be a bit of hindrance compared to those with cs degrees.

That’s a bit of my thought maybe just get the big three and then practice more practical skills for a while. I’ll definitely have to convince my boys to pay for some of those certs the net+ does translate a ton into my current position.

The homelab will have to wait until I settle in to my new place with an office.
