Dat you did . I like fruity stuff . <| sep |> That ' s what i ' m saying . I ' ve been on plenty of crowded busses or trains and had to ask a woman to move her handbag off the set next to her . And let me tell you , sometimes they say no . My whole point was that gendered terms for this kind of thing does nothing but harbour hostility between the sexes and it ' s especially pointless when we both do it . <| sep |> Son , why are you in jail ? Well , I murdered a man over a halfprice iPod , and I ' d do it again . <| sep |> It ' s not just the post game . You can do that immediately after beating Guzma in the mansion . <| sep |> Glad I could help ! A lot of IT workers feel like you do around this point in their career . You are too advanced for the help desk but feel like you ' d be BS ' ing your way through any other position network admin , sys admin , storage admin , management . Add that to most companies ' unwillingness to move you up and you get this limbo feeling . Some people are happy to make a career out of the help desk . Some people find their specialty by accident . But for most of us , we have to take certs and a leap of faith . Good news is having more of any of the alphabet soup of certs out there looks great on a resume . Some other thoughts Management ITIL Foundations V 3 cert Storage Manager VMWare AppsAny Kinda Dev Learn to love PHP , Java or any object orientated language , HTML and practice programming regularly . Try and pick up new languages regularly . Database Admin Queries are your friend . SQL is not . Oracle is also not your friend but you ' d best know something about it . Microsoft offers some certs as does Oracle . IT Project Management CapM and PMP certs but this is one of those catch 22 type deals . You have to have project management experience to get project management experience . If you want to do this one , volunteer to help with any of the big projects and make sure you are organized . Don ' t like a job as much as you thought you would ? Either decide quick and leave before three months is out or stick around a year and six months then leave . Be careful about only staying at places a year . Year hops on IT resumes make IT management nervous . They can tell you are job shopping and don ' t like the instability . Also , try to get your current job to pickup the tab for your certifications . You ' d be surprised by how much they might be willing to cover for you but won ' t unless you ask .
