That’s really good that you were able to get out. I guess I could consider Tableau and SQL but I literally have zero passion or interest in it/for it. If I am going to make a change, this time it both has to make monetary sense and has to be something that I don’t hate every waking minute of.

ablackcatstail, to asklemmy in Do you think there will be a future where your phone can automatically detect if you are trying to record police activity and disables your camera? What do you think the odds of this happening is?

I guess that it is possible as our society becomes increasingly authoritarian. This is why I’m following Fair Phone. It’s a pure Linux phone that’s slated to become available this year or so I remember reading.

I tried Project Management and did not succeed at it. I am thinking of the DevOps course of action. I am still relatively young at 46. I’ll try and make the pivot.

The hard part is convincing somebody to hire me without formal production experience. I am in the classic Catch-22 situation: How do I get experience if nobody will give me the opportunity?

And I truly appreciate it. Thank you. 👍

I’ve been in a support role for 25 years. I can stomach it no longer.

I have to search for a course that would hold weight and not just look like Uncle Slappy’s IT Career School.

LOLOLOLO! I am 46, suffer from bipolar disorder, PTSD, and autism. I cannot even qualify for a security clearance, much less go to Space Force. But that much said, I appreciate you reaching out to me. Thanks.

That’s pretty cool actually. Wish I were in a position to do something similar but I need my next step to parlay with the base skill set I already have.

Okay, that sounds promising. By QA I believe you mean software QA, right?

Okay, I don’t really know what DevOps means or is. I’ll have to search on this one. Thank you for giving me something to consider. 👍

ablackcatstail, to asklemmy in what was your first video game/system you played or remember playing?
@ablackcatstail@lemmy.goblackcat.com avatar

My first video game system that I ever bought was a NES. I got it back in 1986 I think.
