  • I don’t know how to do it this generation style. In my gen, meeting through events and staying connected. Maybe you’re a parent with kids and the kids are friends, naturally you will mingle with other parents.

    Or join a sports team. You will quickly make friends there.

    Join some other events you like. I dunno, like beer brewing clubs or something…

    Thinking back how I made mine, most were from school, jobs, or sports. I had some internet friends but none of them were anything like my real local ones.


  • I’ll echo this. Doing quite well for myself in IT and I have a big fat 0 for certs. I’ve interviewed many people for jobs as well, and I learned certs are bullshit.

    Many will pay to have people do them for them. Or brain dump them. Many times I’ve danced circles around people that look way better on paper than me.

    If you learn the concepts, work and apply them, get that hands on experience, it will help.

    Honestly maybe even a quick run through an MSP is a good place to start. You get to touch a lot of things and learn quickly.
